Dr. Lv Zhiqin
The main causes of right-sided migraine headaches in women include the following aspects:
1. Genetic factors: Many migraine sufferers have a family history of migraines, particularly women, with approximately 60% of migraine patients reporting a familial predisposition.
2. Endocrine factors: Migraines are closely related to fluctuations in female hormone levels, such as hormonal changes during menstruation, postpartum periods, or throughout the menstrual cycle, which may trigger migraines.
3. Environmental factors: These include mental stress, emotional instability, noise, bright lights, and prolonged sleep deprivation or sleep disorders, all of which may act as migraine triggers.
4. Lifestyle habits: Unhealthy habits such as excessive alcohol consumption or high caffeine intake may also lead to migraine attacks.
5. Other factors: Diseases of the ear or oral cavity, such as otitis media and gingivitis, as well as cervical spine disorders, may also cause migraines through nerve conduction.
If symptoms persist or worsen, prompt medical attention is advised.
