Does Headache Accompanied by Nausea Indicate Increased Intracranial Pressure?

Question

Being overweight, irregular periods, possibly having endocrine problems, and experiencing headache accompanied by nausea and vomiting — does this indicate increased intracranial pressure?

Answer

There are many causes of headaches, and it is not possible to make a definitive diagnosis based solely on the current symptoms. It is necessary to understand if there are any cold or fever symptoms, and whether the blood pressure is normal. Conditions such as rhinitis, sinusitis, and cervical spondylosis can also cause headaches. If work and life stress is high, and the schedule is irregular, it may be a case of nervous-type headache, and it is recommended to consult a doctor for further examination.
