I've been getting frequent headaches lately, and I'm in my first trimester. Is having headaches considered okay during pregnancy, or should I be concerned about them?
Since we PCOS moms already have tricky hormone levels, sudden headaches can happen quite a bit during pregnancy. I used to get them a lot in the first trimester. Just drink lots of water, but if it gets severe, please consult your doctor immediately.
Oh god, between the backache and the constant peeing, these headaches are just the cherry on top! I am in my third trimester and dealing with it too. But seriously, if the pain is severe or u feel dizzy, please call your gynac right away.
Headaches are common due to hormonal surges, but if it's severe or accompanied by blurry vision, it could be a sign of high BP. Please get your blood pressure checked and let your gynac know before taking any OTC pain relievers.
Mild headaches are completely normal because of all the hormonal changes and dehydration. But if it's a throbbing pain that doesn't go away, don't ignore it. Check your BP and call your doctor just to be safe.
I know how terrifying every single symptom can feel when you are pregnant. While minor headaches can be normal, please don't take any chances or self-medicate. It's always best to call your gynac to rule out any blood pressure issues.
Mere ghar pe toh mummy aur sasu maa bolte the ki dahi-chawal thanda khane se ya gas se headache hota hai, so they gave me warm ginger tea. But honestly, if your headache is very strong, please talk to your doctor immediately instead of relying on ghar ke nuskhe.
