Birth control?

Can anyone recommend birth control that doesn’t have much hormones and doesn’t make you crazy 🤪 I was on the mini pill due to feeding and I didn’t stop bleeding and my hormones were going crazy, I’m due to have the coil fitted but I’ve heard so many bad stories about them getting lost or needing surgery to get them removed. I’m no longer feeding and don’t trust condoms as we’ve had a few accidents and it’s not worth the stress. Thank you

Ive had the coil fitted three times with no issues at all. I had the. Copper one fitted twice but that does cause very heavy periods and now have the hormonal one. Both have been great and have not had any issues. I think it's a fitting problem that results in issues.

I've had the copper coil fitted a few months ago. No problems except its made by periods heavier but not any more painful. You can book an appointment like a few weeks after having it fitted to check it hasn't moved and they will show you how to check yourself, I didn't bother though as all seemed well. They did say if it's going to move it'll be in the first few weeks, hence the optional check up x

I got the coil fitted and I wouldn’t recommend, I’m considering getting it removed. I had bleeding on and off for 3months now that’s settled. When I have my period, I have more cramps than pre pregnancy and I have very low mood and intrusive thoughts making it difficult to sleep. I’m trying to monitor as I feel hormones are all over the place and don’t know if it’s still post pregnancy related, sleep deprivation (even though I think I’m getting good amount these days) anxiety about returning to work. I always seem to make an excuse but it could be the coil 🤷‍♀️

I am currently on depo injection, so far so good
