60 percent of women with migraine report that their headaches happen more often right before, during, and after menstruation, when hormone levels change. This type of headache is known as menstrual migraine. These headaches may continue till the first trimester of pregnancy. It gets cured during second and third trimester of pregnancy. The headaches may cease after menopause or it may even get worse.
