Different things work for different people implanon gave one friend migraines and mood swings, worked well for another but scarred her arm. Mirena iud worked well for me but a friend got pregnant with it (very very rare!), pill via injection (depro) worked well for me – no periods, whereas it made my friend bleed for a month. I was also on it too long and now have osteopenia (precursor to osteoarthritis). Oh and one friend got pregnant on the mini pill – you have to take it at the same time daily and she was breastfeeding

I had implanon and had it removed after a year after many problems. Any pills give me migraine. I tried myrena and had it removed After 6 months due to heavy bleeding, weight loss.So now it’s condoms

I have only ever used 2 types, the implanon when I was 16, it caused me a lot of weight gain but I barely had a period for 3 years which was pretty good and condoms which I currently. I use an app called mycyle, it works out when I am ovulating so I know when we can also have condom free time as lets be honest they aren’t the best feeling things. I personally like condoms over all other types of contraception as I am not putting any nasty chemicals into my body changing my moods and hormones.

Condom and normin pill

Condoms! They work and also protects against sti.

there are many options these days, talk to your dr about the best option for you

I have a Mirena fitted I think they are great stays in for 5 years controls normal hormone levels

I’ve been wondering about this too

Depo worked well for me for years, and I fell pregnant about 3 months after stopping. We are having a little fun at the moment with all the new types of condoms available! they have come a long way in the last 15 years lol!

I simply dont have sex I hope you found a birth control that suits you.

Which birth control did you end up using?

what did you decide to get

What have you decided to do?

Best to talk with the doctor as they have the latest options and can discuss side effects etc

Talk with your doctor and they will be able to tell you the pros and cons for what each one does
