why migraines spike right before your period Estrogen drops sharply in the days before your period, and that shift triggers attacks. Your brain is highly sensitive to hormone fluctuations, especially sudden estrogen withdrawal. This phase is called the menstrual migraine window, usually days minus two to three. Lower estrogen reduces serotonin, which affects pain regulation in the brain. Prostaglandins released before your period also cause inflammation, worsening migraine pain. This is why your attacks feel more intense and harder to treat that week. Knowing the pattern lets you anticipate attacks and act before they fully start. www.migrainecast.app
