Since entering perimenopause year ago, getting so many one sided headaches, 2 excedrin help, but scared to take too many, could this all be hormones?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
This is a migraine: some women entering perimenopause develop frequent migraine headaches related to drop in estrogen, treatment is with usual migraine prophylaxis like topiramate if chronic migraines aka more than 15 per month
