A member asked:
I get a migraine right before my period. i just got estrogen cream (bih). should i take it only the day before my period? will it alter bleeding?

Menstrual migraine: NSAID therapy may be effective when given the week before and the week during menses. NSAIDs may also be used when traveling or during those special functions that involve increased stress. See an orofacial pain or headache specialist for evaluation and professional management.
