Abstract:
This is a report of an unusual case, where the patient used clitoral and/or vaginal masturbation and orgasm
for treatment of migraine attack. While the non drug treatment was effective, she subsequently developed
depression. The orgasm from masturbation, resulting in the rush of endorphins, probably relieved the
migraine. However, as demonstrated in our patient, the patient also had sexual aversion, tiredness,
feeling of shame and guilt, followed by depression from the alternative non-drug treatment.
