My migraines went away after menopause. I had then badly from around 5 until 50. I don’t recall the migraine meds I was on but I was limited to a certain number per month. The injectable imatrex worked but the pill form did not. So they put me on the one that was limited.

When I was nine the Mayo Clinic put me on a barbiturate to alleviate the symptoms but I didn’t like the side effects and refused to take them.

They do say age helps with migraines. I never had peri-menopause I went from having periods straight to menopause. But there’s a couple reasons for that. I had one and a half ovaries removed because of cysts, when I was in my late 30’s. I was deathly ill with sepsis when I was 50. When I recovered I no longer had migraines or periods.
