Ramadan Fasting and Migraine: Exploring the Association with Circadian Rhythms :
Ramadan Fasting
Daily fasting from dawn to sunset.
Alters eating and sleeping patterns.
Circadian Rhythms
Regulate sleep-wake cycles and hormonal fluctuations.
Disrupted by Ramadan fasting and nighttime eating.
Migraine
Neurological disorder affecting daily life.
Triggered by fasting and circadian disruptions.
Impact of Ramadan Fasting
Increases migraine frequency and severity.
Causes dehydration and hormonal changes.
Management Strategies
Pharmacological interventions tailored for fasting.
Non-drug approaches like hydration and stress reduction.
Dietary adjustments to prevent migraines.
Conclusion
Importance of understanding circadian influences.
Need for further research on migraine during Ramadan.
Ramadan Fasting and Migraine: Exploring the Association with Circadian Rhythms :
Circadian Rhythms
Regulate sleep-wake cycles and hormones (Melatonin, Cortisol)
Disruptions lead to health issues (e.g., migraines)
Migraine Pathophysiology
Linked to circadian rhythms and hypothalamus regulation
Hormonal imbalances and inflammatory pathways (IL-6, TNF-α etc)
Impact of Fasting
Meal and sleep schedule changes
Dehydration, glucose level fluctuations, genetic factors
Management Strategies
Pharmacological:
Consulting healthcare providers
Adjusting medication schedules
Use of alternative forms (Nasal sprays)
Preventive treatments (One month prior)
Non-Pharmacological: Stress reduction, hydration, balanced diet
Lifestyle Modifications: Consistent sleep schedule, light exposure management
