“Due
to the preponderance of evidence that migraine with aura is associated with an
elevated stroke risk compared with migraine without aura, and the assumption
that this risk would be further elevated by use of estrogen-containing
contraceptives, the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists
(ACOG) and the WHO have considered migraines with aura to be an absolute
contraindication to the use of combined hormonal contraception.” (Ref 1)
