Triggers for Migraine

Many factors have been identified as migraine triggers.

1. Normal hormone fluctuations, which occur with regular menstrual cycles, and some types of oral contraceptives (birth control pills).

2. Various foods such as:
  • Red wines
  • Aged cheeses
  • Preservatives used in smoked meats (nitrates)
  • Monosodium glutamate
  • Artificial sweeteners
  • Chocolate
  • Dairy products
  • Oversleeping
  • Alcohol beverages
3. Stress

4. Exposure to strong stimuli such as bright lights, loud noises, or strong smells.

5. Changes in barometric pressure have been described as leading to migraine headaches.

Not every individual who has migraines will experience one when exposed to these triggers. 
If a person is unsure what specific triggers might cause a migraine, maintaining a headache diary can be beneficial to identify those individual factors that lead to migraine.
