Many women who suffer from migraine and
tension-type headaches (TTHs) have an improvement in
the frequency of these headaches during pregnancy.
At the same time pregnancy predisposes women to a
number of potentially life-threatening conditions
which can present with headache. Accurate diagnosis
and treatment of headache during pregnancy is
essential. Primary headache disorders, in
particular TTHs and migraines, generally improve
during pregnancy. However the frequency of
improvement varies greatly. Because the
pathophysiology of both migraines and TTHs is poorly
understood, this limits our ability to predict
improvement. Future research should be focused on
headache pathophysiology and the effect of ovarian
hormones and the pregnant state on headache
pathogenesis.
