Reviews

"...the latest, cutting edge information about migraine and specifically menstrual migrain, in a small package...Published only last year, Menstrual Migraine has brought together the latest in research so that you can get a quick overview of where the science is and where it's going, and how it relates to treatment in a practical way....With so many out-dated or poorly researched works out there, this one was a relief to read. I know I will keep it
handy and will be using it as a reference frequently..."--James Cottrill, as reviewed on http://headacheandmigrainenews.com
