not listed / othe
"I got it Mirena five weeks ago to see if it would help with premenstrual migraines.  Since my early 20's, I have gotten a horrible migraine around my eyes/sinus area the day before my cycle. My doctors said it is from the sudden drop in estrogen, which signals your period to start. When I hit age 35, I started getting one the day after ovulation, and then on and off for five days leading up to my cycle. My doctor said the only way to stop the estrogen drops would be a hysterectomy, but I am too young for that.  They are finding that Mirena can temporarily stop ovulation in some women.  It worked!!  Five weeks not one headache! No side effects other than spotting, which will go away.   Insertion was just 3 mins of pinching/cramping!"
