Headaches accompanied by fever, cold, and weakness, especially when persistent, warrant a closer look. Since you’ve got a past with thyroid issues and PCOS, it’s crucial to consider how these might still be affecting your health. Thyroid dysfunctions, whether hypo or hyper, can indeed contribute to headaches. If your thyroid levels are now within normal range, this should be evaluated to make sure they’re consistently maintained without fluctuations—often tested through blood tests for TSH, T3, and T4 levels. Your mention of worsening headaches around periods suggests a potential hormonal influence, which isn’t uncommon in conditions like PCOS even if it’s currently under control. The interaction between estrogen levels and migraines is well-documented, and this could explain the pattern you’re experiencing. Tracking your cycle and symptoms can offer better insights and help in synchronizing management efforts, which might include specific lifestyle measures or medication adjustments based on the menstrual phase. Considering the headaches worsen with activities like exercise, lifting, or computer use points toward a tension-type or exertional headache. Tension headaches may also mimic migraine symptoms, and sometimes managing stress levels, practicing posture corrections during desk work, or applying regular breaks from screen usage yields notable improvements. Standard treatments vary from over-the-counter analgesics to prescription meds when appropriate, alongside non-pharmacological interventions like physical therapy or relaxation techniques. However, it’s critical you address these symptoms with a healthcare provider as chronic headaches and systemic symptoms like fever may also require further neurological assessment to rule out other possibilities. Emphasize timely medical follow-up in uncovering the underlying cause through clinical examination and testing, ensuring you have a personalized plan that aligns with your everyday life and health history.
