A member asked:
I am having 5-7 ocular migraines during the month. i am worried. could this be something serious ?

Any change: in an established migraine pattern should prompt a visit and exam by your doctor. If the pattern is entirely new it is especially concerning. If it is just an increase in the usual frequency, it could represent a hormonal imbalance at your age, but for example if you are on OCPs this could represent a real danger. Good luck!
