I started to get migraines every other month during periomenopause. I could control them once I got my hormones in order. I started taking a high dose magnesium pill every day for a week before my period and used a bio (organic) progesterone. I rubbed the progesterone on the back of my neck and temples. If I waited too long to do these 2 things, I would have to do it with the migraine already starting and I would also take an aspirin. This method saved me. My doctors could not give me any help - other than my gynecologist wanting to put me on migraine medication. I don't like meds unless necessary and I knew I wasn't having the 'normal' migraines. It was hormonal. For me the migraines had gotten so bad I had vomited and could not be around any light. Since my hysterectomy, I haven't had much trouble, but a few months ago, I felt one coming again. This truly surprised me as I had thought they were over. But I did my 'migraine ritual' and it disappeared. I hope this helps. It's a widely misunderstood migraine. Good luck to all!

Your videos and the valuable info within is helping my Wife and I immensely. Thank you for helping an idiotic guy understand and help my better half!

I have to second the Magnesium! I used to get terrible migraines, and quite often. I started taking Magnesium and they tapered off in severity and frequency. I had to stop all supplements for a surgery, and within 3 days I had one of the worst migraines of my life! Also, keeping up your iron levels is important as well.

Please can you make a video on dizziness during 40's. How to cope up with this problem

Thank you for your kind, helpful words. I find having a fan by my bedhead helps while i sleep and avoiding my mother-in law. :)

I am getting more headaches mainly on one side of my head and they tend to take 24 hours to go.

Off topic but love the hair color!!

Age: 47) I just started experiencing peri-menopausal headache, dizziness (lightheadedness) and even nausea symptoms. I find making a smoothie with a banana, kale or spinach, unsweetened almond milk and some ginger helps somewhat.

As always common sense approach which I love...I suffer from migraine and try best to manage it...mine are in 2 week cycle one at beginning and end....in between I could sleep and sleep....I would gladly have taken HRT though I never take tablets even the tiniest dose triggered migraine and just wasn't worth the risks of stroke etc

Thank you for sharing this 🙏🙏😪
