Could you do a non hormonal birth control option? I’m currently on one because I’m breastfeeding but I’m sure if you ask your PCP or OBGYN they can provide the options for you

IUD cooper one

Wish I could help but never used any. Hubby just bags it. Lmao! Been together 26yrs, married 24, and one planned kiddo only. Still very sexually active. 🙃 We talked about him snipping, but he doesn’t mind condoms so just never did it.

I like the IUDs. I used other types before and had issues with gaining weight. I tend to struggle with that anyway, so I wanted to at least not make it worse. Switching helped. The copper IUD isn’t hormonal, so there’s no weight gain associated with it. Even the others that are hormonal haven’t shown a lot of weight gain (about 5 lbs). Generally it’s just a temporary gain as well because it’s water weight. When your body adjusts it goes away. It’ll vary from person to person exactly how your body reacts. Personally, I didn’t gain any when I switched and it was Mirena.
