Migraines in women is not a risk factor for heart disease, but also increases the risk of death associated with heart problems.

Previous research also concluded that a link between women who frequently suffer from migraines, particularly if accompanied by other symptoms such as dizziness or ringing sound in the ears, are at higher risk of suffering a stroke.

Experts do not know exactly why a migraine can make a person susceptible to heart disease. One explanation is that both conditions have the same mechanism.
