Premenopausal women with migraine history have poor sleep quality


 

Key clinical point: Migraine history was associated with poor sleep quality in premenopausal women, but not in perimenopausal women.

Major finding: A significant association was observed between migraine history and poor sleep quality in p remenopausal women (odds ratio [OR] 1.4; 95% CI 1.01 -2.04; P = .044) but not in perimenopausal women (OR 1.14; 95% CI 0.80 -1.64; P = .46).

Study details: The data come from a cross-sectional analysis of 2067 women (premenopausal n = 962; perimenopausal n = 1105) from the Data Registry on the Experiences of Aging, Menopause, and Sexuality, of which 594 (28.7%) had a migraine history.

Disclosures: This study did not receive any funding. Some authors declared being consultants for or receiving past funding, consulting fees, grant support, or honoraria from various organizations.
