Headaches during early pregnancy?
The exact cause of a
headache
isn't always clear. In the first trimester, changing hormone levels and blood volume may play a role. A dull, overall
headache
can come with stress, fatigue, and eyestrain. Sinus
headaches
may be more likely because of the nasal congestion and runny nose that are common in early
pregnancy
.
