A member asked:
I get migraines with aura. during pregnancy they stopped completely. is the pill likely to stop them again and is the mini-pill safe w/ this kind?

Maybe: Migraines often remit during pregnancy. If they coincide with your periods, then oc may help. If they occur randomly, then oc may not help. Be sure to live a "migraine healthy" life style -good sleep (with a newborn, right) see my health files for tips on migraines from the nih.
