birth control
Hi ladies, I know we're all pregnant and all, but yesterday at my check up my doctor said I should start thinking about what kind of birth control I want after my baby girl is here. I've never been on birth control (and still did very well, baby was planned) what do you ladies suggest worked best for you? I don't want to worry about another baby for a long while at least a few years. And that implant that goes in your arm scares me.
Savannah you aren't supposed to take the nova ring out during sex. If it was painful it probably wasn't inserted correctly :)
After my daughter I got on the shot. I did amazing with it the first time. I ended up getting off it because something went wrong with my insurance so I had to take pills. I took ortho trip cyclen for two years. Then I got back on the shot and gained 60 lbs in 6 months! It increased my appetite so much and I always felt hungry. I didn't have any periods though. Then I tries the nuvaring and it was annoying taking it out for sex. It hurt with it in during sex. Then I got the copper IUD and had a severe allergic reaction to the copper. It was horrible. Now I'm back on the pill and will stick to it till I get these 60 damn pounds off.
I'm starting to lean towards the iuds, I can't engender to take pills very easily... shots scare me.... and we never used condoms to begin with.
I got pregnant on the mini-pill at Christmas. So no idea what I'm going to do yet. I can't take oestrogen. And don't think I want to take anything for a while as I plan on bf when baby comes. Might just use condoms for a while
I was on the pill before and i think ill be going back on it after the baby is born.
I was on the ortho tri cyclen pill worked great no side effects was on it for years. I stopped taking it about a year ago and am now 14 weeks! :)
I had the implant and I had to have it taken out I couldn't eat or drink and I was bleeding for two months nonstop but not every one reacts badly to it and when the put it in its just like an injection.
I had the copper iud and I hated it I could feel it in me and I started breaking out and TMI I started having gross discharge and my vag started smelling it was so embarassing around my husband I went and got it removed turns out I'm allergic to copper!! And I got pregnant on thr pill lol so after baby I have no idea what I'm gonna get on the arm thing scares me too
Why in the world would they force you! That is invasion of your body! Especially if it goes against your beliefs! If fight that one, if it were me... but maybe the implant iud ones that go inside? Or maybe the patch one, just put on one patch for their benefit and call it good?
Am ftm n 22yrs n have never ever had any. So confused and scared n clueless. Am afraid of needles to death n pills make me neaseous no matter what they r for(havent taken contraceptives) n worse of all me n hubby dont belive in any of those. Down here they force u to take them right after labour. I dont know wat am gona do
I'm just wondering because, like I said I've never been on birth control and really don't want another one soon.
I used the patch and it worked very well my periods were light and didn't last long. Probably going to end up going back to it. I did the shot and after awhile I ended up having a nonstop cycle
