摘要
More than half of women with migraine note an association of headache attacks and their menstrual cycles. Headaches associated with menses are often more severe and disabling than headaches that occur other times of the month. First-line therapies include acute agents used for migraine in general; however, for many women, these therapies provide incomplete relief. In these situations, treatment options include short-term perimenstrual prevention employing nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medications, triptans, or hormone-containing preparations. Should these options not suffice, or if menstrual cycles are irregular, continuous prevention using hormonal therapies or standard anti-migraine prophylaxis should be considered.
