According to a 2018 study, The prevalence and burden of self-reported migraine and severe headache in the US adult population is high, affecting roughly 1 out of every 6 Americans and 1 in 5 women over a 3-month period. In reproductive aged women, headache is the third leading cause of emergency department visits.

Dr. Meg Mill is a pharmacist who specializes in personalized functional medicine health consulting aimed at helping high-achieving individuals stop their headaches, heal their gut, have more energy, balance their hormones, and perform, look and feel and their best. In this episode, we dive into her expertise on headache management.

Take-aways:
-A functional medicine approach asks, what is causing the symptom?
-The cause of your headache will be different for each person
-Stress is the chain of pain
-Stress is perception
-Hormonal migraines can come as a result of your body’s natural decline in hormone levels before your period, but there are things you can do to help prevent these kinds of headaches
-”You can’t heal a body you hate” - love and accept who you are and know you CAN heal
