Migraine in Men

Since 1990, there has been a significant increase in the amount of men being diagnosed with migraine, and it is believed that this will continue to increase. Historically, as with many aspects of men’s health, social barriers have played a role in men not being able to seek support for conditions including migraine.

Often, when men do come forward for help, the condition has become more advanced. This can make treatment more difficult. Early intervention in migraine care is important.

As our understanding of migraine continues to grow through research, so does our understanding of how migraine effects men.  Migraine is a debilitating and prevalent condition among men, and if you are experiencing symptoms or are concerned about migraine it is important to speak with your doctor and access support, treatment and care as soon as possible.

Seek support from a medical doctor as soon as possible if you have concerns about undiagnosed headache, symptoms, changes or any concerns in relation to your health.
