No, the only patch available is the combination one, and I wouldn't
recommend it.

Menstrual migraines, by the way, are usually related to estrogen. So the
shot *probably* wouldn't exacerbate your menstrual migraine. However, I
can tell you that I for one am in the minority of women who experience
menstrual migraine even from progesterone, so it *is* a possibility.
But, as a further however, if you're on Micronor and not experiencing
migraine, it's not likely that Depo would be different, since it's the
same hormone.
