Hello doctor,
I am 24 years old. I have a headache for about a week. When I move, I have pulsating headache, especially on the left side of my head and around my eyes. I use pills like Gelofen 400, Acetaminophen and Codeine, but I do not feel better. I am not sensitive to light and sound like migraines. I should have got my periods before three days, but I have not gotten yet. I never had hormonal headache before. Could it be a hormonal headache?
Hi,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
- It can be a hormonal headache.
- But, hormonal headache comes every time you have hormonal changes in your body. This episode of headache is first time for you I suppose.
- To make a diagnosis of hormonal headache, we need to wait and see if it happens every time before your period.
- I would suggest you tablet Topiramate 50 mg twice a day and Tablet Flunarin 10 mg (Flunarizine) at bedtime. Consult your doctor, discuss with him or her and take the medicine with consent.
- If your headache persists for long, especially when you stop the above medicines, then please get an MRI brain done to rule out the other possible causes of headache.
