3 Specialty Tests to Assess Migraines
Neurotransmitter Testing
- Serotonin Levels: Imbalances are linked to mood disorders and migraines.
- Dopamine Levels: Abnormal levels can affect motivation, pleasure, and migraine frequency.
- GABA Levels: Low levels are associated with anxiety, stress, and migraine susceptibility.
Hormonal Testing
- Estrogen Fluctuations: Hormonal changes, particularly in estrogen, can trigger migraines.
- Cortisol Levels: Chronic stress and high cortisol can exacerbate migraine frequency and intensity.
- Thyroid Function: Hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism can contribute to migraine development.
Inflammation Markers
- C-Reactive Protein (CRP): Elevated levels may indicate inflammation that triggers migraines.
- Cytokine Profiles: High levels of inflammatory cytokines can worsen migraine symptoms.
