Migraines? Headaches? 5 surprising causes doctors often miss

Preheader

Hint: It could be your hormones.

If you’ve ever suffered through the torment of a stubborn headache or migraine, then you understand how one can easily ruin your day. Unfortunately, too many people resort to Band-Aid type solutions instead of understanding what’s really causing the head pain. One place you might not have looked for answers to your migraines? Your blood. Here are a few of the imbalances that can be to blame:
​Magnesium Magnesium is a mineral that's crucial to the body's function, and being deficient can cause headaches.
Cortisol Stressful situations are often triggers for migraines, and some researchers believe that this could be due to spikes in cortisol.
Thyroid Hypothyroidism, a condition where the thyroid is underproducing its important hormones, can cause the pain.
Testosterone One study found that men who experienced chronic migraines had significantly lower testosterone levels.
Insulin Some research has found that insulin resistance is common among people who suffer from migraines.
