Question: Migraines...whole left side of my face swells...What would be causing that?
Answer:
Dear Heather:
There is no clear-cut answer to your excellent question. Estrogen and progesterone have effects on blood vessels all over the body. Perhaps the absence of estrogen is responsible.
Good luck,
John Claude Krusz
