Hey ladies.. I know there's been a post in the past about BC but I wanted some specific advice.
What has your experience been with different types of birth control?
I tried the nuvaring for a month and it was the worst couple weeks of my life...
i wanna try the non-hormone BC like an IUD... what do you think?
I'm afraid if I dont do soemthing soon, I'll create more n more mini 3j's NOT GOOD
I hear you Girl, I wouldn't want to create any more mini Mrs P's either, (already have 3 girls)..lol, I really wouldn't mind having more, I love kids, (But I still haven't lost my mind) Don't think I can handle more than 3 at the moment..haha
There are two types of IUD's available one is covered with copper, the other releases the hormone progesterone.
The copper-coated IUD primarily prevents pregnancy by not allowing the sperm to fertilize the egg.
and the IUD coated with progesterone, works in a similar way, but may also thicken the cervical mucus, which prevents sperm from entering the uterus and possibly prevent ovulation.
Since you don't want hormones I would go with the copper IUD..It can stay in for 5 to 10 years.. My sister has always used it, but did get heavier, longer and more painful periods for the first few months after she put it in.
I've never used it, I have always used birth control pills/ or patch , expect when we tried for my 3 pregnancies & all I did was leave the birth control & got pregnant right away each time.. I really have to be carefull... maybe having a mini Mr P Jr is not such a bad idea... (yeah right) lol
Good luck with your search
