The current headache diagnostic criteria even distinguish between several types of primary headaches associated with sexual activity.<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>Methods.\u2014Members of the community or students at the Illinois Institute of Technology (N = 68) were administered the Brief Headache Diagnostic Interview and the Sexual Desire Inventory (SDI). Based on the revised diagnostic criteria established by the International Headache Society (ICHD\u2010II), participants were placed in 1 of the 2 headache diagnostic groups: migraine (n = 23) or tension\u2010type (n = 36).<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>Results.\u2014Migraine subjects reported higher SDI scores, and rated their own perceived level of desire higher than those suffering from tension\u2010type headache. The presence of the symptom \u201cheadache aggravated by routine physical activity\u201d significantly predicted an elevated SDI score.<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>Conclusions.\u2014Migraine headaches and sexual desire both appear to be at least partially modulated by serotonin (5\u2010HT). The metabolism of 5\u2010HT has been shown to covary with the onset of a migraine attack, and migraineurs appear to have chronically low systemic 5\u2010HT. As sexual desire also has been linked to serotonin levels, the results are consistent with the hypothesis that migraine and sexual desire both may be modulated by similar serotonergic phenomena.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1526-4610.2006.00470.x","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2006,5,24]],"date-time":"2006-05-24T11:17:57Z","timestamp":1148469477000},"page":"983-990","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":18,"title":["Not
