-- Hi,I was reading on here and I know its been awhile since these conversationa had taken place. I'm contemplating taking progesterone for my migraines. I started getting migraines after the birth of my first child 3 mths after she was born. I was still getting them when i was pregnant with my son until the last trimester then they stopped. I thought they had gone away , i was wrong they came back 2 mths later. I have done everythin to try to get rid of these. I have gotten acupucture, i have done yoga, i have taken propananol, i have taken herbs eg. evening primrose, flax seed oil, B12.... I've even gotten my hormones checked. They said i was within a normal range, but their range is huge. So now im on santimigrin a vessel sablizer and i still take imitres when ever they get too bad. I dont like taking all these drugs . I was reading in Alive magazine about a women who had the same symptons and they said to try progesterone from wild yams. I would like to know your take on this subject.
