what type of birth control are u on?

post #1 of 17
Thread Starter 
i havent been on birth control since i was like 19 or soo but i started taking Yaz, (yazmin) so far i like it. its suppose to clear up ur skin, lose weight or maintain weight gain, less mood swings and ur period is suppose to be very light. the only downfall is my insurance doesnt cover it so its about 50.00 a month.

I have the 5-yr IUD. I refused to go on the Depo again and I have two kids from while on the pills, so my options are limited.

I use the Nuvaring now.

I really have to come up with a decision about what kind of bc I'm going to use. I'd planned to have my tubes tied after this pregnancy but I didn't get the papers taken care of soon enough to have it done while still at the hospital.

I don't know what I'm going to use yet. I better figure it out cause I think two kids is good for now.

I am on nothing because Johnny got snipped...but that Yazmin sounds really good. Personal question for you though-has your sex drive lessoned since you have been on it? That is the reason why I don't take bc any more, I have no desire for sex when I am on it. But I have had major problems with my skin lately and my periods are heavy so that pill sounds pretty good to me! Not willing to give up my amazing sex life though!

Nuttin' honey! I've gotta figure it out soon. My 6 wk. appt. is coming up. However, the old snip-snip sounds good to me.... I'm too old to have any more kids!

Popper pills due to breastfeeding.

Yeah Diana, that is why I gave up the pill years ago. Too bad, that sounded like a really good bc pill!

BC really messes up my sex drive too and makes me gain weight.

Nothing here because I had my tubes tied after having Abby. Ahhh the freedom of not worrying about BC.

I got my Mirena IUD put in yesterday! It's good for 5 years, no period, just occasionally spotting every few months and it's totally reversible, if for some reason I totally fall off my rocker and decide to get pregnant again. J/K

Seriously, I think we're done having kids, but we don't want to make any permanent decisions just yet. When we do, Marco will be getting the 'ole snippity-snip too!!
