Migraines Linked to Higher Sex Drives

Posted on Jun 20, 2006

Susceptibility may be a plus, not a negative, in the bedroom, researchers find.

Reuters via MSNBC:

NEW YORK - For some individuals prone to migraine, this susceptibility may not necessarily interfere with their sex life and may in fact improve their libido, according to research published in the journal Headache.

“The goal of this research was to understand migraine better,” lead author Dr. Timothy T. Houle told Reuters Health. “By better understanding how the brain is altered with this syndrome, we can develop better drugs in the future.”

“Migraines have other commonly associated symptoms, such as sleep abnormalities and a higher risk of depression. Altered sex drive may be another quirk of being a migraine,” he added.
