Headaches when menstruating! - Brain & Nervous System Disorders Message Board

I am a 23 yr old Female,a single mom.
I used to always get a lot of headaches,and often,most of the time they were painfull enough to be recognized as migraines,and at times-frequent they were less painfull,and more frustraing,because I felt them,but didn't I feel a weird preasure,not to painfull,more like a linger,and mainly top of head,and around temple/eyes...Now,this doesnt happen as often as it used to--now I noticed they tend to show up,more when I get my period!Does anyone why this happens,and if I should ask to have my head,checked?!..Can someone help,please?!

Hi YOU know you are not the only one,i presume you are having hormonal headaches, alot do. But it is always a good idea to get checked by your g.p, as it could be a number of other reasons, eg high blood pressure, stess..
