See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
Based on the evidence, grade B recommendations can be made for the use of sumatriptan 50 and 100 mg, mefenamic acid 500 mg, and rizatriptan 10 mg for the acute treatment of MRM. For the preventive treatment of MRM, there are grade B recommendations for the perimenstrual use of transcutaneous estrogen 1.5 mg, frovatriptan 2.5 mg twice daily, and naratriptan 1 mg twice daily. Choosing among treatment strategies must be based on clinical considerations.
