A woman sits on a bed by a window while experiencing a pregnancy migraine.

Pregnancy migraines are amongst the many symptoms that expectant mothers might experience from the first trimester. 

Like many pregnancy symptoms, migraines can be triggered by the hormonal fluctuations that come with being pregnant. Dr Shazia Malik, a Consultant Obstetrician and Gynaecologist at The Portland Hospital told GoodToKnow, "Pregnancy is a time of significant change for any woman, bringing about a myriad of physical and emotional adjustments. Among these changes, migraines can be a common concern, affecting a considerable number of expectant mothers. Understanding migraines during pregnancy is crucial for managing them effectively" as well as ensuring both your and your baby’s wellbeing.
