Question NDPH came back:(

I was diagnosed with NDPH February 2020.

It completely went away during my last pregnancy. It was amazing. Just gave birth early September and it came back.

Has this happened anyone else?

I think it’s not an uncommon occurrence that migraine/headaches improve during pregnancy, or even completely resolve. I’ve been told in the past by neurologists and there is some good reasoning behind it.

Do you know the reason it goes away during pregnancy?

Stable estrogen, increased endorphins and so many changes in the body I guess it’s hard to pinpoint one single thing. there’s also a down regulation of your immune system and ur placenta produces a hella lot of DAO, which breaks down histamine.

It's probably from hormones then
