Migraines are more common in women, often linked to hormonal changes during PMS, perimenopause, or menopause. Our clinic offers targeted migraine management designed for women, helping you reduce both frequency and severity.
Migraine is one of the most common neurological conditions, yet it is often under-recognised by both women themselves and their doctors. Many women normalise their symptoms as “just headaches” or attribute them to stress, hormones, or busy lifestyles, while healthcare providers may overlook the diagnosis or underestimate its impact. This can delay effective treatment, prolong suffering, and reduce quality of life. Greater awareness, accurate diagnosis, and tailored management are key to improving outcomes for women living with migraine.
Hormonal migraines can feel overwhelming, especially when they strike around your cycle, during perimenopause, or after hormonal changes.
I understand how migraine patterns can be closely linked to shifting hormone levels, and I offer personalised, evidence-based treatment plans to help you feel in control again. Whether you’re dealing with monthly headaches, irregular flare-ups, or migraines that have worsened over time, I’ll work with you to identify triggers, create a treatment plan that fits your lifestyle, and support you with practical, sustainable solutions.
Migraines can involve:
Common triggers include hormonal fluctuations, stress, certain foods, dehydration, and lack of sleep.
Diagnosis starts with understanding your migraine patterns and ruling out other conditions. Treatment may include:
We also manage migraines that overlap with PMDD, menopause, or contraceptive use.
Hormonal migraines are triggered by fluctuations in oestrogen levels often around ovulation, before your period, or during perimenopause. They’re common in women and can be more severe or longer-lasting than other types of headaches.
We’ll take time to understand your symptoms, history, triggers, and how migraines are affecting your life. From there, we’ll explore treatment options that may include medication, hormonal support, lifestyle changes, and prevention strategies.
