Migraine is a debilitating neurovascular disorder which is estimated to affect 18% of women and 6% of men. Two main forms of this neurological disorder must be considered: Migraine without Aura and Migraine with Aura. Migraine without aura often has a strict menstrual relationship: the International Headache Society classification gives criteria for Pure Menstrual Migraine and Menstrually Related Migraine. The higher prevalence of migraine among women suggests that this sex difference probably results from the trigger of fluctuating hormones during the menstrual cycle. Safe and effective contraception is essential for all women of childbearing age, but Combined Oral Contraceptives have been associated with worsening of attacks and cardiovascular risk in these patients. We analyzed characteristics, effects and benefits of progestogen-only pill, a possible alternative for contraception in women with migraine.
