AB  - Headache  is  arguably  the  most  common  disorder  of  the  nervous  system,  with  over  half  of  adults  aged  18  to  65  years  worldwide  having  experienced  a  diagnosable  form  of  headache  in  any  given  year.1  Headaches  can  result  from  primary  headache  disorders  such  as  migraine  headache,  tension-type  headache,  and  cluster  headache  or  may  also  be  secondary  results  of  a  long  list  of  other  disorders,  a  few  of  which  are  specific  to  pregnancy.  Importantly,  the  majority  of  individuals  suffering  from  headache,  be  they  pregnant  or  nonpregnant,  are  not  correctly  diagnosed  by  health-care  providers.  It  is  the  intention  of  this  chapter  to  provide  guidance  to  obstetric  care  providers  to  facilitate  the  correct  diagnosis  and  treatment  of  headache  in  pregnancy,  with  the  dual  intentions  of  both  appropriately  diagnosing  and  treating  these  frequently  disabling  conditions  and  providing  guidance  to  these  women  and  their  family  beyond  the  conclusion  of  the  pregnancy.
