Title: Pregnancy and CH
Post by romain on Oct 10^th, 2003, 9:25pm

Just curious if any of the females on this board have had problems with CH and pregnancy?

I am planning on becoming pregnant and want to know if the episodes are worse being pregnant with CH. I plan on asking my new neuro doctor on Monday but want to hear from those that have been through it.

I had only one "bad" day during the pregnancy but a lot of congestion. Kept me worried for awhile because the congestion felt a lot like my cluster congestion. It's from the increased blood volume. Anyway, I just started a cycle and my daughter is now 7 months old. Not getting hit as bad as I have in the past though!

Here's to a pain free pregnancy for you!

When I got preggers in Sept of last year, I missed last years cycle. BUT, my cycle returned 2 & 1/2 weeks after I had my baby in June. Alas, I had NO ch's during my pregnancy.

I too went cycle free both times I was preggers. I think it has summin to do with hormones.. who knows..but it was a welcomed relief & allowed me to enjoy it.
Best of Luck

Pregnant 3 times.............NO ch ever during pregnancy............BUT, got hit during hospital stay for EACH one.......only 1 hit, not a cycle.......WEIRD??

try explaining to the nurse at about 2 a.m. that those little tylenol pills were NOT going to help with THIS headache.........GEEZ.........what I could of done had I had this place back then.........I mean HELL......I was laying right near O2!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wishing you the best during your pregnancy when it happens.
