Which birth control is best? nuvaring or depro shot?

I'm looking into birth control methods. Nuvaring or depro shot. I know with wls we are releasing rapid dosage of estrogen. Nuvaring has both estrogen and progesterone. Which one you ladies are currently on? Double dosage of estrogen. .I will really become crazy. ..lol

    I have the mirena and have had a period 3 out of the last 4 wks. I'm sure it's related to surgery tho bc I've had it for a year and my periods have been regular (never stopped for me). If this continues I'm going to switch to the para guard.

    Yes you can use tampons normally, and it's effective immediately.
