Although more than 50% of women with migraine report an association between migraine and menstruation, menstruation has generally considered to be no more than one of a variety of different migraine triggers. In 2004, the second edition of the International Classification of Headache Disorders introduced specific diagnostic criteria for menstrual migraine. Results from research undertaken subsequently lend support to the clinical impression that menstrual migraine should be seen as a distinct clinical entity. This paper reviews the recent research and provides specific recommendations for consideration in future editions of the classification.
尽管超过 50%的偏头痛女性报告偏头痛与月经之间存在关联，但一般认为月经只是偏头痛的多种不同触发因素之一。2004 年，国际头痛疾病分类第 2 版引入了月经性偏头痛的特定诊断标准。随后开展的研究结果支持了这样一种临床印象，即月经性偏头痛应被视为一种独特的临床实体。本文回顾了最近的研究结果，并为今后分类版本的修订提供了具体建议。
