I can't think of any off the top of my head that are specific to menstrual Migraine.....

I'm sure you've read Teri's book?

Also there is Migraines and Other Headaches by Dr. Yound and Dr. Silberstein. I found it good, coming from a doctors perspective.

I'll have to see if I can find any on menstrual Migraines specifically.....

I haven't yet read Teri's book, but it is on my list. I looked at the index & could not see anything regarding Menstrual Migraines, I may have missed something

I did find a book called "Menstrual Migraine" by Susan Hutchinson. Should receive it early September.

I have a little book called Migraine Q&A: Your Questions Answered by Carol A. Foster, MD, which contains some valuable, accurate information on menstrual migraine.

http://www.amazon.com/Migraine-Your-Questions-Answered-...id=1221751779&sr=8-1

It's a very useful book overall, so I'd recommend it generally, not just for this topic.

I don't know if you ever found anything that helped, but NHF has a booklet specific

Maybe amazon has something by now too.

Good luck. I've noticed that as a pattern now too. Esp since 2 Decembers ago when I started having 2 periods a month and my world was rocked upside down. Good Grief. Who knows what brought that on???? Now my head has settled down a bit with lots of preventive meds and no BCP, even if the rest of the plumbing is a bit more inconvienced by both parties......

Hey, I was just flipping through our library catalog online and found this book. It's a little old but if he's the Diamond Headache Clinic guy, he might be knowledgeable. They might have a good website too.

The hormone headache : new ways to prevent, manage, and treat migraines and other headaches
Diamond, Seymour, 1925-

I think the book was from 1996
