More Migraines, Less Chances Of Developing Breast Cancer
Women who confront with migraines stand less chance of developing breast cancer, according to researchers from the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center in Seattle.
This correlation may be related to estrogen, a hormone produced in both men and women. The explanation goes like that: high levels of estrogen are linked to an augmented risk of breast cancer, and women who experience migraines are said to have low levels of the sex hormone. So these women have a lower risk of developing breast cancer. More precisely, the risk is 30 percent lower, researchers say.
