Thirty million Brazilians have migraine. And those who suffer most are women.

A study in the United States showed that women who have migraines are at a much higher risk of developing cardiovascular diseases such as heart attack and stroke. More seriously, if they use birth control.

To explain the risks and prevention, Welfare Wednesday (13) invited the cardiologist Roberto Kalil, program consultant, and neurologist Dr. Thais Villa, head of Headache sector of Unifesp.

Migraine is a disorder that can make the disabled person. It should be treated very seriously and control because it increases the risk of stroke and heart attack, as well as hypertension, high cholesterol and smoking.

Migraine is hereditary and, in most cases, the medication may be a trap.

The trick is to record the events and crises in a notebook. Factors such as duration and prevailing times, intensity and location of pain, accompanying symptoms, triggering situations, among others, must be observed.

The power of those who have migraine should be balanced with regular intervals between one meal and another. Fasting is an important trigger of headache. Avoiding the use of stimulants in excess, such as caffeine, is also important as well as maintain a sleep routine. Sleeping too little or too much can cause crises.
