A member asked:
Diagnosed with migraines (aura). runs in family. mri w/contrast normal, optic nerves normal, and eeg normal. why migraines onset at 25 if genetic?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Propensityis genetic: In many medical conditions, we know that it is possible to inherit an increased risk of developing the condition. Migraine is one such condition. You may never develop it if you are at increased familial risk, or you may develop it at any time. The treatment is the same.
