• Summary:"It is common misconception that migraine is restricted to hysterical females and that it is a condition that sufferers have to learn to live with. Although migraine affects both sexes, there is a prevalence of the condition in women during the reproductive years. It is now recognized as an organic condition resulting from biochemical changes for which effective treatments are available. This book explores the links between migraine and hormonal changes and the effective management in various stages of life."--Jacket.
