Could your hormones be causing headaches or migraines?

Rachel Van Halteren • October 8, 2019

Unfortunately for women migraines are not uncommon during our reproductive years. The role of our hormones, progesterone and estrogen, and the sensitivity of our body's to those hormones' fluctuations, can unfortunately be the reason why some women develop migraines.

Migraines related to hormonal fluctuations has been treated by MDs with birth control which may help - but birth control has the unfortunate side effects of insulin resistance (leading to weight gain), weaker bones, depression, headaches, and increased risk of breast cancer, heart disease, stroke, dementia, and inflammation in the body, to name just a few.

So...unfortunately, you've traded your migraines for a whole host of other problems.
And there is also the possibility that you might have traded a migraine for a headache instead as some women develop headaches from birth control. Or there is even the possibility that your migraines do not go away at all.

Some women start developing migraines or headaches after starting the birth contol pill (BCP). The reason for this is often the drop in hormones that occurs on your 'week off.' Unfortunately, taking BCP continuously and avoiding that week off so that you don't get those headaches has other potential health risks.

So, the question is....What can be done?
Homeopathic medicine has been used to treat headaches, migraines, hormonal imbalance and much more for many years. It is completely natural and doesn't have health risks. By stimulating your own body's immune system, it works to balance hormones gently and can help strengthen your body's ability to respond to those monthly hormone fluctuations so that you don't end up with those terrible headaches or migraines.
