Contraception After Birth
Pre pregnancy I was on the combined pill however have now started to experience migraine with Aura so been taken off.
Since coming off the combined pill I was put into desogestrel. This gave me constant spotting and severe brain fog to the point i couldn’t retain any info. I’ve now been put onto noriday, I’m coming to the end of month 2 and have had 4 periods in 2 months. I’m at my wits end with the bleeding. I’m not sure if this is normal or not, does anyone have any experience of something similar?
Can anyone share their experience on other contraceptive methods such as the injection or implant? I’m so worried if I try one of these the bleeding will continue, and it won’t be as simple as stoping a tablet for the bleeding to stop.

I have the mirena coil and I love it. No cramps, no bleeding, forgot I was even meant to have periods tbh 😅 I suffer with endometriosis so this was recommended for me & it's been a life saver
I have the implant and was also on it for 6+ years before baby. I don’t feel it effects my hormones too much, this time around I still get my period every month but before I had baby I never had a period. I prefer the implant as I’m quite forgetful can’t trust myself to take a pill everyday, once it’s in you don’t have to think about it for 3 years x

I have a Jaydess coil and it's worked well other then the cramping I get around when my period would be. That being said I have no bleeding after it's settled down (about a month). I personally have bleed too regular as in more then once a month on every pill I have been on. I also don't think the coil affected my fertility like the pill can.
