Head pain in 11 Yr old

11 Yr DD. Puberty for a year. No periods but normal discharge we get etc. For a week each month she gets pain in her eyebrow, or other places in head for 3 seconds, maybe 5 times a day. No illness, no sickness. Gone on since Feb. Eyes OK. Doctors tomorrow. I think it's due to puberty/ her soon to be periods. Anyone else get this head pain?

Hi, Did you ever get to the bottom of this as we are going through the same thing with our 11 yr old daughter? Many thanks

I had this throughout my teens and into early 20s. It eventually resolved itself but it wasn't anything untoward.

My daughter has something similar, she had an MRI and was diagnosed with a chiari.

She doesn’t need any treatment for it as hers is minor.
