DES babies and cluster headaches

Posted by Robin (207.20.217.3) on January 30, 2002 at 14:15:04:

Like all of you I am a cluster headache sufferer. I am a male, 37 years old. I started having them around the age of 20.

I am also a DES baby (see link on DES http://www.meb.uni-bonn.de/cancernet/600034.html).

I am curious to see if there is any correlation between the DES hormone exposure and cluster headaches.

DES babies were born between 1938 and 1971. This seems to correlate with the statistics in the cluster headache survey.

Of course this is a stab in the dark, but anything to understand the underlying cause is helpful.

Thanks,

Robin
