What Causes Migraine Headaches?

The causes of migraines are not fully understood, although genetics and environmental factors have been noted as possible contributors. It is believed the pain is caused by changes to the brainstem and how it interacts with certain nerves.

Potential chemical imbalances that disrupt the regulation of pain can also contribute to migraines. Serotonin levels drop when migraine attacks occur, which releases neuropeptides, causing the pain. There are other neurotransmitters involved, including calcitonin gene-related peptide.

There are common triggers that vary from patient to patient, and they can include:

  • Stress
  • Too much or too little sleep
  • Excessive caffeine
  • Hormonal changes in women
  • High altitude
  • Weather changes
  • High humidity
  • Loud noises
  • Glare or flickering lights
  • Computer screens and other digital displays
  • Muscle tension in the head, neck, and shoulders
  • Certain foods such as sweets, alcohol, and cheese
  • Missing meals
  • Food additives such as monosodium glutamate, nitrates, and aspartame
  • Mild dehydration

The good news is that you can learn to identify your triggers to lessen the chance of migraines, and we will help.
