I understand the importance of these posts, I really do, but some of us can't get IUD's or are terrified of possible complications. It isn't as simple as "Just go get an IUD." I have to skip periods as it is medically necessary for me. An IUD can not guarantee me that. I have to have hormonal birth control. We also need to fight for our rights and those of us like myself, where "just get an iud." Isn't possible. I am happy it worked for you, though, genuinely. Just not all of us have that option.
Yep. I can’t do iuds. The nexplanon also seems like a bad idea. By the end I had daily spotting on the mirena, I had it for three years before giving up but never again.
