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.

Episodic syndromes that may be associated with migraine Episodic syndromes that may be associated with migraine are commonly seen in children and are likely to evolve into migraine in the subsequent course of the disease， including several subtypes such as benign paroxysmal torticollis， benign paroxysmal vertigo， and recurrent gastrointestinal disturbance. Understanding the above syndromes has an important clinical significance in the diagnosis of migraine in children.

Objective: This case control study was undertaken to ascertain the frequency of subclinical and overt hypothyroidism in patients with various types of primary headache disorders in Kashmir, North India. Methods: The study was conducted in a tertiary care (university of Kashmir) hospital of North India. The study subjects consisted of 250 patients with primary headache disorders. This was compared with an age-sex matched control of 500 subjects. Thyroid function tests were performed by new automated immunochemiluminometric assay. Results: Among patients with primary headache disorders, subclinical hypothyroidism was present in 22% and overt hypothyroidism in 7.2%. On the other hand, subclinical hypothyroidism was observed in 11.2% and overt hypothyroidism in 1.2% of cases in the control group, the differences between primary headache and control group was statistically significant (p<0.05). Frequency of hypothyroidism was more in chronic headache disorders (chronic tension-type headache and migraine). The frequency of hypothyroidism in patients with primary headache disorders was higher among females than males, but this was not statistically significant (p> 0.05). Conclusion: Hypothyroidism is found to be a co-morbidity or predisposes to the development of chronic headache (tension-type headache and migraine) in this North Indian study.
