Avatar f tn I would never recommend the depo shot. I was on it for a year and ever since ive had bad headaches and problems with my bones aching. It ***** the calcium out of your bones and I was always small (110-115 pounds) before I started it and it made me gain weight I was never able to keep off and stayed around 140 when before I could never even make myself gain weight. It totally messed up my body and periods and I bled for 2-3 weeks everytime I had to get the next shot.
Avatar n tn really good is the mirena. it goes in and stays there for an entire year, then u go back to the gyno and get it replaced. this happens for 5 years. after the 5th year u take it out and wait a few months to get another 5 year doses. This way, you never had to worry about skin problems, missing your pill, or taking a painful shot. it doesnt hurt wen inserted,not wen taken out.
7677085 tn?1395374075 They can't make you choose birth control if you don't want it. I didn't start using birth control until my daughter ed five months old. I just breastfed around the clock.
Avatar f tn when you swich your birth control you can have breakthrough bleeding cause your changing id call your dr just to reassure your self but i think everything will be ok
1067212 tn?1353960402 I'm looking into a new birth control, me and my boyfriend currently use condoms but I'm just looking into alternatives. I can't go on the pill because when I was on it before I kept forgetting to take it so it was never effective. I'd like something that lasts but I don't have to worry about everyday. I'm worried about side effects such as frequent periods. I had a friend who was on some form of birth control, and for a year her periods would last 3 weeks.
Avatar f tn Have any of you ladies thought of birth control after delivery.?? I want to try a new birth control but that will actually work..I've tried the pill, the patch, and the shot but neither worked. What are some good birth controls.??
14089185 tn?1439417585 As a frequent birth control changer, I have seen some pros and cons to most types. I have tried the shot, the patch, the pill and I'm currently on the arm implant. Each had pluses. If you are looking for a birth control where you will have a period every month, take the pill or patch. If you are looking for something that you don't have to worry about every day/week, there's the shot.
Avatar f tn i have my 6 week pp check up tomorrow and i'm contemplating on getting the mirena for my birth control but i'm not too sure, kinda nervous.. what are yal already mommies thoughts on a good birth control?
Avatar f tn I am pregnant with my first, and it only took two months to conceive. I wanna breastfeed, but I'm definitely considering birth control once I'm done breastfeeding because it didn't take much time to get pregnant.
Avatar f tn Hey what kind of birth control are you considering after birth??? Has anyone ever been on the depo shot? How did your body react? My friend has done the depo shot two different times and each time she has gained alot of weight with it, anyone else experience weight gain? I would like to do the depo shot bc I know I cant remember to always take the pill but I already have a hard time losing weight any advice???
Avatar f tn I have heard about the patch and the IUD and wanted to know all about them or any other really effective birth control. I don't want anything that will increase my acne, weight, or flow. I have bad acne and flow as it is.

1703515 tn?1350500231 Bleeding between your periods and spotting is common with birth control patch. Bleeding while on the patch should be discussed with your doctor. A clinical evaluation may be necessary. Keep me posted. Best luck and regards!
Avatar f tn ) oh, just minor skin irritation where the patch was but it's nothing..
Avatar f tn Hi, I'm 15 and my mom is putting me on the birth control patch. And we are going soon to see the doctor for the patch in about a week I think so I would just like to know everything that I might need to know about it before we go in. So this way if I have any questions I can ask her and at least know something. So any information about the patch would be useful thank you.

This is my first baby so I'm planning on getting on birth control after my baby is born but not sure which way to go... I dont like taking pills because i'm really bad at remembering the times lol...
Avatar f tn Wat is the best birth control that a 1st tume mom shud qo on because im nt trying to get pregnant no time soon
Avatar f tn What birth control products are you ladies considering after delivering (if you're considering)
Avatar f tn //www.mayoclinic.org/drugs-supplements/estradiol-transdermal-route/side-effects/drg-20075306 However, most women really tolerate it pretty well. The half life of this is pretty short meaning it washes out of your system pretty quickly too.
639543 tn?1297027634 I had my son on July 14th, and now that I know how CHAOTIC being a mommy is (JUST KIDDING!) I want to get on birth control. DH and I decided we don't want another baby for a while, we want to enjoy Dameon as MUCH as possible (and he's getting SO big so fast!! :[ ). So what kind of birth control did you ladies use after having a baby?? I will not do IUD or the shot/patch, any other suggestions??
7670156 tn?1401987192 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.
Avatar f tn Trying to decide what type of birth control I want after this one is born. I definitely don't want the pill because I got pregnant this time because I forgot to take it. So I was wondering what you ladies liked best and your experiences with birth control.
Avatar f tn So my babygirl is almost 8 weeks this past Sunday i started my birth control pills. i personally wanted to try the iud but hubby wasnt having it. Well im 20 years old and this is the first time ill be on birth control. i tried the pill once when i was younger but i only took em for a month cus i kept forgetting to take them. anyway, i was just wondering.. how many of you have been on the pill and did it work? for how long? what were your side effects?
