I have been waking up with a headache in the morning lately. I wonder if its from leaving the window open while sleeping. Do you ever get a morning headache? Whats the cause?

If headaches are something that have just started or are persistent, it best to have the condition checked out with the doctor. Otherwise, the mind is very powerful and a dream that you can't even remember can cause you to wake up feeling rough and tense which can easily cause headaches. I practice meditation every morning (link to instructions for meditation are on my profile page), and it is extremely calming. In this way, if I have awoken with a headache it soon disappears.. :-) Derek

A couple of weeks ago, I was waking up to a head ache, but hitting the snooze bar seemed to help some, no idea why.... might've just been recovering from the last cold, and the head congestion - I'd hit the bar and change positions

In yesteryear I encountered that problem, and I found my digestive system not working properly. After I treated it with dietary fiber (bulk-forming laxatives). The best way of adding fiber to the diet is increasing the quantity of fruits and vegetables that are eaten. This means a minimum of five servings of fruits or vegetables every day. Finally, it resolved and no more morning headache.

I get headaches all the time in the morning....especially when I don't have my coffee early enough, like when I sleep in until 10 or so, I will have a headache because I usually have a coffee by 8. I would think leaving the window open would help. Not make it worse. Good luck, maybe make a dr appointment to talk to your doctor.

hello moneymommy i hate it when i wake up in the mornings and right off of the bat, i have a headache like that. sometimes when that happens i blame it on not being able to sleep good during the night or sometimes i will blame it on my sinuses acting up on me. sometimes i even blame my morning headache like that on my bad teeth. so i do not know if sleeping with the windows open in your bedroom like that would cause you to wake up with a headache like that or not. i hope that as the day goes by today, that your headache will get lots better and leave you alone. take care and have a beautiful day today!

I sometimes wake up with a headache normally its because of sinus congestion but on occasion its due from drinking too much the night before
