Hormonal fluctuations play a crucial role in dizziness and provide an important clue for differentiating between <a href=\"https:\/\/ivrt.de\/en\/dizziness-disorders\/vestibular-migraine\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"5313\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">vestibular migraine<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/ivrt.de\/en\/dizziness-disorders\/persistent-postural-perceptual-dizziness-pppd\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"5343\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">PPPD<\/a>.<br>\u3164<br>The most important facts about the cycle, migraines, and persistent dizziness:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Accurate differentiation is decisive: Only when both diagnostic criteria are precisely matched can the therapy be optimally adjusted, e.g., by a combination of medication-based migraine prophylaxis and targeted therapy. <a href=\"https:\/\/ivrt.de\/en\/dizziness-disorders\/vestibular-rehabilitation-therapy-and-balance-training\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"8932\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">vestibular rehabilitation<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hormonal triggers in vestibular migraine: Many affected women report that their dizziness attacks occur frequently before, during, or immediately after the menstrual period. Severe hormonal fluctuations are a scientifically well-documented main trigger for dizziness migraines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No cyclical pattern in PPPD: In persistent postural-perceptual dizziness (PPPD), such hormonal dependencies have not yet been scientifically established. Typically, this involves a continuous, daily fluctuation or dizziness of confusion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Different criteria: Although both disease patterns share similar triggers (such as bright light or supermarkets), they are based on completely different diagnostic criteria.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can have both: It is by no means uncommon for both disorders to be present simultaneously. Very often, women with vestibular migraine develop secondary PPPD later on \u2013 a condition that was previously known as MARD (Migraine Anxiety Related Disorder).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><br>\ud83d\udc49 Would you like to understand PPPD in detail?
