What Causes Severe Migraine Headaches After A Child Birth?

I recently had a cardiac angiogram and have since been suffering from severe migrane headaches. I have suffered from migranes in the past and they were genrally related to my monthely cycle but have not had problems with this since the birth of my child 8 years ago. Is there a link? Should I be worried?

menses can be a trigger factor for migraine. if pain lasts for more than 3 attacks/month you may start with prophylaxis like sebelium or propanolol or just a analgesic like naproxen or sumatriptans etc will relieve your headache.
