What did you use for birth control while you were waiting to get pregnant?

Yes my fault I meant to say that it embedded in the uterus

The Dr goes over that risk with you and the information is also readily available on the internet. Women all over the world us IUDs at a much higher rate than in the US.

I have a Paraguard and i love it. If I wanted to have children, i probably wouldnt take the small risk. With weight loss as a priority, I wouldn't take anything hormonal either. Good luck ladies.

I've had the Mirena IUD for 3 years now, the first two-years i had no bleeding but still the cramps the thirdly year is when i had the surgery and started bleeding and my gyom said is normal after WL surgery i had it checked in November and everything is normal for me .

good luck and remember just like the weight lost every women is different.

Can the Depo shot slow down weight loss significantly? I'm so upset...I've only lost 10 pounds since December 31!!! Had the shot January 7 and that's it!! Good bye weight loss!!!!!!!

Yeah the Depo shot can. It is pretty bad for weight loss.

Great [emoji849]

I got the mirena about a month ago

Has anyone just used condoms? I really dont want to get on birth control.

We are using condoms until I can start the pills which will be in two weeks.
