Despite all of the risks, I actually have fewer migraines when I take the combined pill!! I tried the mini pill, and had a constant headache that turned regularly into migraine, and a permanent period. Never again.Lucyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06017762926181382950noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9104649278110687260.post-18913795546188667062013-06-07T11:21:16.732-07:002013-06-07T11:21:16.732-07:00I'm slightly worried to read you take the cont...I'm slightly worried to read you take the contraceptive pill, as you mention you take 3 packets back to back, I assume you mean the combined pill. I was told by my doctor that I shouldn't, under any circumstances, take this pill as it increases the risk of stroke, as does migraine and together they increase the risk a lot. I take the mini pill which is safer. I only menstruate 3 or 4 times a year which is normal on the mini pill so would have the same affect for you, without the risk.
