  3. birth control and blood clots

    flowermama posted a topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
    H-I I am new to this site and am hoping to have a surgery date in Oct. anyway, my surgeon wants me on a progestin only form of birth control as I have had a pulmonary embolism in the past. It seems like the options are IUD-, depo shot,-Implanon and mini pill. I dont like that the mini pill has to be taken at the same time every day within a couple hours to be effective. Anyone have experience with the other options?
