Brief Summary  
According to WHO, Migraine is a primary headache disorder, in most cases episodic, that
usually lasts 4–72 hours, accompanied by nausea, vomiting and/or photophobia and
phonophobia. It is sometimes preceded by a short-lasting aura of unilateral, reversable
visual, sensory or other symptoms. Migraine is a complex neurological condition with a
genetic basis, marked by recurring episodes of moderate to severe headaches. These
headaches are often localized to one side of the head and are commonly associated with
nausea, as well as increased sensitivity to light and sound. Subjective cognitive decline
(SCD) refers to self-perceived worsening of cognitive abilities, such as memory and
attention, without objective evidence from cognitive testing. In individuals with migraine,
SCD is notably prevalent and appears to be closely linked with comorbid conditions like
depression, anxiety, and poor sleep quality. A comparative study design is proposed to be
conducted in subjective cognitive decline in patients with migraine. Individuals with
clinically diagnosed migraine without aura (ICHD-3), more than 4 attacks over the past 3
months, more than 1-year migraine history, SCD-Q score more than 5, excluding other
headache types, neurological/endocrine conditions, pregnancy, or recent cognitive training.
Ethical clearance will be obtained from Institutional ethical committee before
commencing the project. After receiving the informed consent form, the subjects will be
screened for subjective cognitive decline. The screened patients will be allocated in 3
groups: Each group will be for 3 times per week for 6 weeks.
