As women transition through perimenopause and into menopause, hormone fluctuations can have a profound impact on migraine patterns. In this final episode of our four-part women's health series, hosts Dr. Nada Hindiyeh and Izac Ross welcome back leading migraine expert Dr. Susan Hutchinson to explore the complex relationship between hormones and migraine during midlife.
In this episode, we cover:

What happens to migraine after menopause—and why it may improve for some
Safe and effective treatment options, including CGRP inhibitors, hormone therapy, supplements, and more
How to navigate conversations with your OB-GYN or primary care doctor
Strategies for managing migraine triggered by surgical menopause
Dr. Hutchinson also shares personal stories and actionable insights to help listeners feel empowered in this phase of life. Whether you're navigating the transition yourself or caring for someone who is, this episode is full of clarity and compassion.
