I'm not on anything at the moment. I have been using the natural method. I keep track of my cycle very closely and just don't have sex on days that I'm ovulating. I am going to talk to my obgyn about Essure though because I don't want to mess around and get pregnant. I know they say the surgery can mess with your hormones and it may throw my cycle off. I've already had 3 kids and my hubby and I agree that we don't desire anymore.

I was told you can't take the pills, because they don't break down good they recommend the depo or the iud.

I was using the Nuva Ring until I had two blood clots. It actually saved my life. I'd have never found out I had a blood clotting disorder. It could have killed me with a stroke if left untreated.

I now have had my Mirena for about a year and love it! No period. Spot for a few days occasionally and that's it.

I was on the depo shot years ago. Loved the convenience. Didn't love that I gained 50 lbs!!!

I would recommend the Mirena to anyone who already has at least one child. I have 4 kids and I love mine and I've only had it for a few months. My husband and I decided last year that he would get a vasectomy this year. How convenient for him that as of Jan 1st our insurance no longer covers male sterilization but it will cover a tubal ligation that costs much more. Yet another example of an insurance company with a stupid policy. So although its not meant to be a short term solution, I got the Mirena in March to prevent pregnancy before and after my RNY. Later this year after I've recovered, I'll have surgery again for a tubal ligation. I have already met my $1250 out of pocket max for the year with pre-op testing so I won't have to pay dime for it.

Good luck with finding birth control that works for you.
