External Trigeminal Nerve Stimulation for Migraine Treatment in Pregnancy

Summary

This online registry aims to understand the potential benefits and safety of external trigeminal nerve stimulation for the treatment of migraine in pregnant women. Women do not need to use external trigeminal nerve stimulation or any other form of migraine treatment to participate in the registry. The main question it aims to answer is: Is external trigeminal nerve stimulation a safe and effective option for migraine treatment during and after pregnancy? There are no required changes in migraine treatment to participate in this registry. Participants may or may not use external trigeminal nerve stimulation or any other treatment they currently use and may still participate in the registry. There are no clinic or research visits, as the registry is entirely online. Participants will be asked to complete up to six 15- 20-minute surveys over a time period of up to 12 months.
