" No, there is absolutley no connection between the coil which is an IUD and migraines. However, those with the coil are highly suseptable to various types of infection. If you have an infection, that could cause a headache - but it would be a headache that would come on and not go away until the infection was cured. If you are getting a migraine for 2 weeks then it goes away, its not an infection. What does your neurologist treat your migraines with? "
