Is anyone on the non hormonal coil and if so how’s everyone getting on with it? I’m unsure weather to give it a try or not.

hey yall. so i was on the depo shot for 3 years. i took my last shot in july, and it took until december for me to start my period. well i started, but now ive been bleeding for 26 days. has anyone else had this experience? it keeps looking like it’s slowing down and then picks right back up

So I read a horrid article about a lady who ended up with her legs amputated due to contracting TSS from her tampon. She hadn’t left it in too long and apparently even if you change regularly you can still get it. I mean WTF? Am I being OTT or does this put you off too??

Has anyone ever gotten pregnant while on birth control and you were taking it faithfully not missing any pills? Just wondering for science more than anything. We have two littles 3 years old, and my youngest will be 1 next month. My husband doesn’t want a 3rd at all, but I would love a 3rd in a couple years. Call me...

I want to get my tubes tied but my doctor is booked for 2.5 months. They have me on a call back in case someone cancels. Are there places to go now and would it be same day or do I have to schedule ahead? I don't have the best insurance but I do have it. I live near salem

Why hasn’t anyone told me that I’d eventually reach a point where my round ligament pain and size would make it so difficult to wipe myself after using the loo? Oh, come on! Really?! REALLY?! This is so not cool, God! Design fail!

I was told I wouldn’t have children, now I have a baby and after he was born I got the Nexplanon. This was in hopes it would help regulate my emotions without medication. (I and anxiety disorder and depression but don’t want to be medicated due to my genetics) however I have been struggling more with this and am get...

Also excess saliva. Anyone else have this

Hiya I just had my 6-8 week check up and was asked what contraception I would like. Any choices or preferences? I have only ever been on the pill but had bad side effects as a teen including depression, I don’t really want the coil and would like some advice on what others have and if they would recommend it :)

Hi I'm hopefully someone can reassure me. I'm 20 weeks and 1 day. I have ran out of paracetamol so have just taken 2 ibuprofen. I'm now worrying I may ruined everything.

I got ma IUD not too long ago. Was wondering anyone else had they period for like a week plus?

Comment which one if you have.

I have not used birth control for years but I'm terrified of the side effects and also don't want have kids so soon. I have 2 under 2 and having more kids is a NO for me. I don't like the idea of taking hormones though. In the past it affected me with badly with headaches, low libido, moody…nausea.
