  9. I have the iud and love it. If u have had a rny and take the pill just b careful cause studys r coming out now with woman that take the pill and have had a rny they r getting pregnant shortly after there bypass cause they have gotten rid of the first half of the intestine where all of the absorption is done. I knw 3 woman that they used the pill as there only form of birth control. One got pregnant 7mon after the other one 6mon and the last 10mon. So if u chose 2 use it as ur only form u might also want 2 use something a Else ith the pill.

  16. Hello I live in pittsburgh pa and had my first or 3-4 Surgey's. I love my plastic surgeon. The first surgey I picked 2 have was a breast lift and aug. she suggested breaking it up in2 diffrent times of Surgey's and by doing it this way she can save me over$10,000. So now I am hopping 2 have the next BIG one done in a year or 2. Also by breaking them up u can have time 2 save up more $$.
