Suggest Remedy For Migraine

Every month I get headaches/migraines a day or two before my period starts and sometimes during or at the end. I can t take birth control because it gives me severe anxiety. I have recently started taking natural supplements. I try taking tylenol but it doesn t help once I have a headache. Is there anything else I can try? Thank you!

HI
Well come to HCM
If this is pure migraine, this trigger with many factors and couple of this are here, one is anxiety and second is hormone pill this would be enough to cause the episode of migraine, taking analgesic wont help you any more, there are two way to control the pain one is prevention and second is abortive medicine, in my opinion prophylactic would be nice and some time both can be administered, for prevention Tricyclic antidepressant is the drug of choice, with anti epileptic drug and this are carbamazepine 200mg three times in day and amitriptyline twice in day, try this, take care and have a nice day.
