Many people do get a bad headache just before periods. Even white discharge. Leukorrhoea is also caused by stress, anxiety and tensions, more of mental than physical.

Yes the headache can be a sign, many women get one at that time of the month, it is from your hormones changing. Cookies are not good when you have a headache, they can make it worse, the sugar is not good. Try some warm milk, and also try warm and cold compresses on your head, 15 minutes each ( just take a wash cloth and run it under cold water, wring out and place on your forehead, you can then nuke it for a minute or two so it is warm when you need to switch to warm). Also B vitamins are a huge help, especially B-6. Try to eat healthy, stay away from junk food, especially sugary or salty, fried foods. Fruit, veggies, etc. are your best friends. Best of luck.
lay down, relax or try to go outside 4 a walk
I doubt the headache and the discharge are related as in one is causing the other. It is possible though, if your female hormones are out of balance to not have a period and then to get a headache from either not enough or too many hormaones. I would suggest going to your OB and talking to her. Tell her about the headache AND the dischrge and lack of period. In the meantime, try putting a cold washcloth on the forehead where it hurts and putting your feet on the arm of the couch higher than your head. This will force the blood to go to your head hopefully helping with your headache. If you develop stomach cramps, fever higher than 105 or blinding headaches go to the ER right away. Good Luck and stay off the computer til the headache goes away, the light can make you more sensitive.
