Brief Answer:
A proper diagnostic work up is necessary.
Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thank you for asking HCM
I have gone through your query. A proper diagnostic work up is necessary to rule out the cause of your problem. Blood routine examination should be done to rule out anaemia and signs of any inflammatory process running in the body.
Is your periods regular?
Thyroid profile test should be done to rule out hypothyroidism also.
If all these are with out problems then your problem can be due to migraine and a consultation with neurologist is well appreciated in such case.
Taking prophylactic medications for long term will help in such case.
Let me know if anything not clear.
I am happy to help you.
Thanks.

Is there any itching or redness associated with the spots?
Whether the spots stay permanently or it comes and goes?
Is there any provoking factors like bathing in cold or hot water etc to get the spots?
Do you have any gastritis symptoms like abdominal pain , constipation etc?
