Inclusion criteria

1. Participant has regular menstrual cycles ≥24 days and ≤34 days 2. A minimum 1-year history of migraine (with or without aura) consistent with a diagnosis according to the International Classification of Headache Disorders, 3rd Edition 3. A history of menstrual migraine attacks of at least 3 months 4. Participant reported history of experiencing at least 1 migraine attack during the perimenstrual period in at least 2 out of 3 menstrual cycles immediately prior to screening. 5. If the participant is receiving a permitted background continuous prophylactic migraine medication, the medication dose must be stable for at least 3 months prior to the Screening visit and, the dose is not expected to change during the course of the study

Exclusion criteria

History of retinal migraine, basilar migraine or hemiplegic migraine 4. Current diagnosis of schizophrenia, bipolar, or borderline personality disorder 5.
