As a young adult, I was treated for migrane headaches with a very mild birth control pill. At one point, I had pain for 9 days straight! I spoke in a whisper, because it hurt to breathe.

After several years, I was able to stop taking them, and no more migranes. I'm very glad my doctor, was sensitive to my needs.
