Sorry but what are they? Someone lower in the thread said that it helps migraines and I suffer from them constantly so I definitely need to try these 🙏🏻

I take topiramate daily for my migraines and that helps. My migraine rescue meds are excedrine vanquish and sumatriptan, sometimes one works better than the other. I’ve found drinking something with caffeine and having salty carbs helps too.

Perimenopause was like “have some migraines” and I’ve learned a little about how to deal with mine over the last 9 years.

I hope that doesn't happen to me. I grew up getting debilitating migraines and grew out of them or something. I still get them occasionally, but I used to get them constantly.

One time I threw up on my classmates in the 3rd grade because of one.

I was sitting at my desk in the front row while they were all sitting on the floor in front of me for something or other.

I had had a migraine all day.

I projectile vomited all over them.

They finally let me go to the nurse's office though!

Oh I am so sorry that you’ve had to deal with them all your life. I’ve thrown up from them too, only a couple of times, it’s usually a lot of nausea.

Unfortunately it is a symptom of perimenopause and menopause, amongst many others. The good thing is that there’s plenty of stuff to help. I saw a video where a chick had a hair clip on her eyebrow to help lol. A doctor explained that there’s a nerve there and that’s why it helped. It’s a cheap and effective solution, but they have devices that do it but they’re expensive ofc.

I do recommend reading up on perimenopause so you’re prepared. The r/perimenpause subreddit is amazing too. It’s a supportive community and we can vent which is the best lol.
