Thinking about which birth control I want is driving me crazy. I can’t decide, they all sound so horrible! I was leaning towards the non hormonal IUD (Paraguard) but I have read so many bad reviews that I am now terrified to have it. I am literally stressing out over this 😭.
@shaunileist.sl, to me it hurt only because I’m not a fan of needles and they have to numb the area first. Then it’s just pressure until you adjust to having it in your arm. The first day it’s kinda twangy pain so I just tried not to move my arm as best I could for the whole day and took a nap. Lol. But it wasn’t that bad really. I’m just a big baby. Lol
@mrs.ray2016, what are the pros and cons of that one? I can’t see myself getting it but I am trying to keep an open mind! Did it hurt?
@shaunileist.sl, ya mine were too. Not gonna lie the first four months were scary heavy but they said that's what is expected. This is my first bc in a loonnggg time and I'm happy I have it because I really don't want anymore babies right now. My husband can sometimes feel it depending on the position but I haven't had any problems with it
@ecahanes, it’s good to hear a good review haha the internet totally has me freaked out over it! I’m still unsure about it. I wouldn’t be a huge fan of heavier periods, mine used to be light and short. I have yet to see what they are like now.
I have paraguard! The only thing that sucks is the heavy periods but my are starting to get better. I love that I don't have any extra hormones in my body. Totally worth it
Don’t stress out. I had the Nexplanon for 20 months. It was great. Didn’t have any issues. I can tell you more about my experience if you’d like more info.
@sakura-chan, right! My thoughts exactly, I wanna just say forget it I’ll be okay BUT I really just don’t want another pregnancy so soon haha pull out used to be a thing for me but once I wanted my baby I’m afraid my S/O is used to shooting inside almost everyday for half a year till I got pregnant and all through the pregnancy.
@shaunileist.sl, I’m scared of pills, shots , iud , pad ... ETC
🤷🏻♀️ i said condoms because that’s HONESTLY the safest protection out there
No weight gain
No worries
But that’s my opinion but there is the “pull out” technique 😅😂🤣
I don’t use anything 🤷🏻♀️
@sakura-chan, yeah not fun haha and I think my s/o and I have sex too often to use condoms.
@mrs.ray2016, yeah I’d cry haha
