The researchers at Henry Ford Health System in Detroit may have found a link between Migraine and risk of depression. The report is published in the journal Neurology. They found that both, Migraine and Depression worsen each other.



The research team found during two-year research that migraine patients were five times more likely than normal people to develop major depression were. In addition, patients suffering from depression at the start of the study had over a three-fold higher chance of developing migraines.



The researchers said that the study specifies that the link between migraine and major depression is bi-directional. Each disorder increases the danger for the consequent first onset of the other. At the same time, the treatment to improve from both migraine and major depression might be beneficial for patients with both disorders.
