A new study suggests that women with both migraine and persistent hot flashes face double the risk of heart disease and triple the risk of stroke compared with women without both symptoms. Managing both conditions is crucial for long-term health. These results are noteworthy because migraine and hot flashes are both so common. Itโs estimated that hot flashes effect nearly 80% of women transitioning through menopause.
