A member asked:

What would cause a 20 year old female to have migraines her whole life for 3 days or more at a time?

Genetics: Migraine headaches run in families, and the pattern and intensity varies due to external or internal triggers (bright sunshine, or various foods, respectively) do not despair, as the pattern can be disrupted with prescription or otc items. Search for triggers is often a major challenge, but prevention works great. See a neurologist and get a plan.

Migraines no control: Migrains if not controled with preventive meds and not avoiding triggers will keep recurring 3days etc one should see a physician or a neurologist to control these episodes with preventive meds and avoiding the triggers and treating migraines at first sign of the headache so that it does not last for three days.
