it can be a hormonal headache. but hormonal headache comes every time you have hormonal changes in your body. this episode of headache is first time for you i suppose. to make a diagnosis of hormonal headache we need to wait and see if it happens every time before your period. i would suggest you tablet topiramate 50 mg twice a day and tablet flunarin 10 mg (flunarizine) at bedtime. consult your doctor discuss with him or her and take the medicine with consent. if your headache persists for long especially when you stop the above medicines then please get an mri brain done to rule out the other possible causes of headache. for further information consult a neurologist online --> <link>
