Migraine can be caused by a number of issues such as hormone imbalances (low progesterone), food allergies, muscle strain, eye strain, dehydration, to name a few. These should be treated if found to be an underlying cause of headaches.
If these have been ruled out we supply a number of medicines for the relief of migraines.
