Read with interest regarding the "older women" post. I too have wondered if Hormones are anything to do with CH's. Menopausal women are usually low in Hormones and (or) dominent with zeno-estrogens. Anne Marie from what I know - your "hairy" problem could be to do with being Estrogen dominent. Can I suggest that you get your progesterone levels up to counteract the problem - a wild yam cream or progesterone cream should do the trick. Might take a few months to kick in. Wont work if you are on HRT though. And in case this is of interest to you, I have had CH's for 30 years,I am pre - menopausal,I have a low testosterone count and still get as many headaches as I did when I was young(and probably had a strong testosterone count)!!!
