This questionnaire comprised migraine differentiation questions, lifestyle factors, and the Migraine Disability Assessment test (MIDAS). MIDAS was used to estimate the impact of migraine on the class performance of young adults. With female to male ratio of 3.3:1, the average age of participants was 10-24. The prevalence of migraine associated with gastritis was found to be 53.3% significant. A significant relationship was identified between migraine, gastritis, and migraine in young adults. MIDAS test indicated that migraine had a significant impact on the class performance of young adults indicating that no impact, mild impact, moderate impact, and severe impact had a prevalence of 26.7%, 30%, 26.7%, and 16.7%, respectively. Hence, significant associations were found between migraine and gastritis in the young adults. Shocking alteration in the lifestyle of Pakistani community was seen, while conducting this study. Further studies can be conducted to understand the factors associated with day-by-day altering trends in the country.
