Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
The study is expected to identify the predominant psychological triggers (Manasika Nidana) responsible for the onset and exacerbation of Ardhavabhedaka (Migraine) and highlight significant gender-based differences in these stressors. It aims to establish a correlation between specific psychological factors and the frequency or severity of migraine attacks, thereby validating the Ayurvedic concept of psychosomatic causation. The findings are anticipated to support the development of gender-sensitive and holistic management approaches, including preventive strategies based on Ayurvedic principles such as counseling, lifestyle regulation, and stress management.Timepoint: 1 Year
