Which are the causes of Intracranial Hypertension?

Only cause that may be contributed is birth control so far

Myth-obesity. Over production of CSF Fluid with an unknown cause

There are no known causes for Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension, hence the word 'idiopathic' which simply means a condition or disease that arises with no known cause. There is also Secondary Intracranial Hypertension which means that the cause for pressure increase in the skull is a form of head trauma. It mostly occurs in patients who have been in car accidents etc.

There is a clear link to IIH and being overweight, however this is NOT a cause. It means that IIH usually occurs when women are of child-bearing age and are overweight. There are some cases where a person is of a healthy weight and still has IIH. On the other hand, there are some people who find losing weight relieves their symptoms and they often go into remission but each person and how they react to this condition is different. What may work for someone else, may not work for you.

There are things that can spontaneously and oddly 'set' this condition off. As a person with IIH myself, I find that things like stress, the weather, humidity and things like bending over can cause a headache/migraine. With me, bending over to tie my shoe laces for example, makes me feel like my head is underwater and I usually have an off balance weird moment which is hard to explain.

So there are no known causes for this condition unfortunately but our bodies tell us what they like and what they don't like. There are a range of treatments to losing weight, to medication, to shunts and stents. There is no cure so we have to figure it out. Our bodies give us signals, we just have to listen.

In most cases IH is idiopathic. Sometimes a head injury or other neurological diseases can be the cause.

They say weight and s a factor but many have proven that untrue. Many who were on birth control were later diagnosed. When I was diagnosed I also had spinal menengitus for the second time in my life , not sure if there is a connection

Chronic intracranial hypertension has many, many potential causes. Some sufferers have no obvious known cause - this is known as Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension.
Other causes include autoimmune diseases, Lyme disease, a blood clot on the brain, hydrocephalus, an intracranial mass & chiari malformation

At this time it is unknown which makes this disease an incurable one at the moment.

Unknown etiology. No alternative explanation of symptoms.

Intracranial pressure may be increased due to medications such as high dosis of Vitamin A, long term tetracycline antibiotics or hormonal contraceptives.

There are no particular known causes, but it has been linked to hormones and birth control

It is till now idiopathic.
But some causes aggravates it..like being obese, using OCP (oral contraceptive pills),
Treatment for acne

Some cause of intracranial hypertension are traumatic brain injury, while idiopathic intracranial hypertension has no known cause. Idiopathic-means "unknown ".

There are some who believe stenosis or narrowing of the venous transverse sinuses in the brain is the cause of idiopathic intracranial hypertension and thus makes it secondary intracranial hypertension.

Weight, birth control, hereditary?(maybe)

Some Drs say middle aged woman of child bearing age and who are overweight are more predisposed to this condition

They don't know the cause

There are many speculations of what the causes are. Genetics, environment,weight, vitamin A overload, birth defect and many secondary reasons as well such as traumatic brain injury, cancer or epilepsy

No cause is know it is said to be liked with waigt hormones infections sinus problems

overweight, over 30s, infections

hereditary, medication - birth control hormones, antibiotic's, severe head trauma.

It's is idiopathic and unknown to be honest.

Idiopathic intracranial hypertension has unknown cause/eitiology however research are suggestive of a number of casuative pathways, rather than a singular cause. These include weight, hormones including birth control, neck injury, narrowing of the subdural venous sinuses, adverse pharmaceutical side effects, etc.
Secondary intracranial hypertension can be attributed to a direct cause such as traumatic brain injury, stroke, other medical condition, specific medication, etc.

There is no known cause for IIH.
