However, migraines are closely related to a number of other conditions. The connection may be stronger if there are migraines with aura. An aura consists of symptoms that occur before your migraine pain. They can include flashes of light (\u201czig-zags\u201d), blind spots, or tingling in your hands or face. But what conditions are associated with migraines? Are you more likely to have any medical problems if you have these severe headaches?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Stroke (stroke)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>There is evidence that a migraine can trigger a stroke in:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>People experiencing migraine with aura<\/li>\n<li>Women<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>In general, however, the risk is very low, but slightly higher compared to a woman of the same age who does not have migraines. How often migraines occur does not seem to change your chances of having these conditions.<\/p>\n<p><strong>High blood pressure<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Studies have yet to show a consistent link between high blood pressure and migraines. There is evidence, however, that high blood pressure can make you have more pain attacks<\/p>\n<p><strong>Epileptic seizures<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If you have migraines, you are at least twice as likely to have seizures. There may be a genetic link between the two. Researchers believe that the seizures may have the same genetic cause as migraines with aura. Of course, more study is needed in this area. Again the probability remains very small, but higher than the population average.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Hearing problems<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Your migraines increase your chances of sudden hearing loss. This is an unexplained, rapid hearing loss that occurs within a few days. It is extremely rare. However, people who have these severe headaches experience sudden hearing loss twice as often as people who do not experience migraines.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Fibromyalgia<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This syndrome causes chronic pain, fatigue and other symptoms. Migraines are common in people with fibromyalgia. However, there is not enough evidence to prove that having a migraine makes you more prone to the condition.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Depression and Anxiety<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The frequency of migraine attacks is increased in people who are stressed. If you have both, you are also more likely to have depression. Some research suggests that migraines with aura make anxiety and depression more likely. However, further research is needed.<\/p>\n<p><strong>PTSD<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If you have migraines, you may be more likely to have post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). One study found that you are 5 times more likely to have PTSD if you have migraines.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Early Childbirth<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Some small studies show that women with migraines who become pregnant are slightly more likely to have problems such as low birth weight, premature birth, and preeclampsia. Scientists continue to study this phenomenon. Migraines usually go away after the first trimester of pregnancy, but sometimes (a few) times symptoms can get worse with pregnancy and may require a different treatment approach, which is why doctors recommend that anyone with migraines talk to a specialist in the headache before she got pregnant.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Research to date has not shown that migraines are the cause of other medical conditions in the vast majority of cases.
