Birth Control

I recently had a baby 9 weeks ago and was trying to figure out which type of birth control to take. Does any one have any opinions on which ones are the best? I thought about the IUD but was a little afraid of it plus I heard that the partner can feel it sometimes. I also thought about Depo but heard it can take a while for fertility to return. I want another child but I'm not sure how soon I want to have it.

Thanks for the advice. I am trying the patch. It was prescribed to me and I have an appointment 3 months from now for more patches and a check up to see how I'm doing on it.

Hello,
You can opt for Nuva ring or depo shots if you do not want kids in the next 1-2 years. However, you should get the birth control prescribed and then only you can take it because your health needs to be assessed and if any contraindications to the birth control are found like heart condition then you may be prescribed other forms of birth control.

It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your doctor. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing
