Contraception

Hi girls what contraception are you on after giving birth and how’s it affecting you. I got the marina coil put in months ago but my stomach is killing me and when I’m due on my cramps are 10x worse and feel sharp as if I can feel it inside me🤢. I’m hoping to see something that tends to work for the majority of women

I got that same one a few years ago before I had my baby but it messed with my whole body so I had it removed. I got the implant on my arm about two months post partum but I’m getting it removed on Wednesday because it’s making me get my period on full more twice a month and it’s killing me Ended up just back on the pill

Personally I’m on nothing and taking other precautions when intimate. I used to track my cycle using the natural cycles thermometer but haven’t had a period back yet since having my daughter so not tracking again yet.

@Lottie by other precautions do you mean condoms? Or are you using other methods whilst you cants track your ovulation

Originally, I had the implant 2 weeks after I gave birth but my hormones were all over the place and I felt like the implant made me feel worse so I had it removed not long after I had it in! Now we use condoms as I personally am happier that way

I was on the pill but it was messing around with my hormones post birth as I can only be on specific medication as I’m at a high risk of stroke due to migraines I’ve had for 10 years. I chose to come off it but didn’t want anything invasive x

Yeh condoms or non penetrative intimacy 🥰
