No relationship: Iud's do not cause headaches or migraines. Tough to treat migraine hormonally, but perhaps a preventative medication will stop the headaches. Work out a plan with your neurologist.

How do you defer a complex migraine, from a onset of a complex partial seizure , from a minor or mini stroke because I have had them all and still do even if the EEG CT and MRI are coming back abnormal because of the operations but normal for me?
