I get these frequent headaches which lasts for 2-3 days specifically before my menstrual cycle. Please suggest what can be done to avoid them.

Hi there I understand your concern and anxiety....over-the-counter pain relievers, such as ibuprofen or naproxen sodium , at regular doses starting the day before you expect your period to begin will help you. Prescription nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), such as mefenamic acid, also are available...Consult gynecologists they will do the needful.
