How can hormone replacement therapy (HRT) affect my headaches?

Using hormone therapy during menopause may change your headaches. In general, studies show that hormone therapy has about the same chance of making your headaches better or worse. Unfortunately, the benefit can be difficult to predict.

Because hormonal headaches are caused by hormone cycling, you can reduce the effects hormone replacement during menopause will have on your headaches by keeping the changes from highest to lowest estrogen levels as small as possible. You can do this by: Talking to your healthcare provider about using a hormone patch instead of a pill. Using a continuous, transdermal estradiol patch gives you a steadier level of estrogen in your system than taking a pill.

Using the lowest possible hormone dose to control your menopause symptoms. You may also need to add headache prevention therapy if headaches become a problem when you're using perimenopausal hormones and you need to continue hormones for health reasons. You will probably be able to discontinue prevention medications when you stop taking hormone therapy.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
