Headaches when on period during Perimenopause

[JustLaura]

Is it normal to have headaches when you're on your period during Perimenopause?

I've had the occasional headache in the run up to my period a few times but now it seems I'm getting a headache for the duration of my period (4 days - probably medium flow).

I get migraines. I got them during puberty, then hardly ever had a headache for any reason and no migraines for 30 years and now they are back.

I get them the minute my period has finished. The doctor prescribed me Triptans which really help, get rid of the migraine within a few hours rather than days.

Thanks. This period has floored me with symptoms. The actual flow has been OK but I seem to have had every other possible symptom. Hopefully all will go once my period ends.
