About Hormone Induced Migraine

Hormone-induced migraine is not a single procedure but a specialized diagnostic and therapeutic management approach led by a neurologist for migraines linked to hormonal fluctuations, particularly in women. This comprehensive strategy involves a detailed patient history, tracking menstrual cycles, and sometimes hormone level testing to confirm the hormonal trigger. The neurologist then devises a personalized treatment plan, which may include lifestyle modifications, acute migraine medications, and preventive strategies like hormonal stabilization therapies (e.g., specific birth control regimens or hormone therapy adjustments). The goal is to reduce the frequency, severity, and impact of these hormonally-triggered headache episodes, significantly improving the patient's quality of life.

  • Patients with a history of migraine whose headaches changed with puberty, pregnancy, or postpartum periods.

PATIENT REVIEW

Had my gallbladder out last week....

Had my gallbladder out last week. The surgery itself was fine, but the first two days after were rough. Dr. Madhumitha was really on top of my pain meds, adjusting them a few times until it was manageable. She checked on me every morning and evening at MGM, which helped a lot. I'm home now and the recovery is going okay, just taking it slow.
