Hi.
I've gone through your query. I can understand your anxiety.

During early pregnancy, headaches are a common symptom due to changes in hormones and blood volume. It is safe to use Paracetamol during pregnancy. But over usage is not allowed. Take paracetamol 500mg or Dolo 650 once a day . But don't be used to it.

Additionally,
* Avoid direct exposure to sunlight often
* Take plenty of fluids
* Proper diet and adequate rest
* YOGA to be stress free
* Exercise
* Apply cold or heat packs to your head
*Get a massage is an effective way to relieve pain

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Get well soon.

Regards,
Dr. Yogapriya V, General and family physician.
