Has anyone had the implanon? Im due November 1st and really debating if i should get that or get back on my trinessa pills. Not planning on getting pregnant for a few more years or at all after this baby.

I get high blood pressure on pills with estrogen so I started the mini pill. It has no estrogen and I didn't have any side effects.  I was off it for about a month when we got pregnant. Only noticeable difference between that and normal pills is that all pills are active, you dont have the iron pill for the last week which means you cant miss any

I did depo for almost 4 years and it was horrible! I miscarried my first baby, had a hard time getting regulated, gained 40-50lbs, and it's super bad for your teeth and bones

Everyone is different, but I'd just like to say I did the depo shot and it was terrible. A lot of women tell me they've had a similar experience. Talk to your Dr, but I dont suggest it!

I loved the nuvaring! But I have visual migraines that cause me to. E on a low estrogen kind of birth control, so it was that, pill, arm implant, or iud. I did the pill for a while, but I'm not responsible enough to take it daily at the same time.
