Just get a hormone-free IUD.  No mess, no fuss, no pregnancy.[/quote]

I've read too many articles about complications from IUDs -especially Paraguard,  from extreme hair loss, to weight gain, cramping to having the damn thing get stuck and needing invasive surgery to remove it. For something that is "non-hormonal" it sounds like it has just as many bad side effects if not more than the pill. It sounds like the diaphragm isn't anyone's favorite either. I feel pretty much screwed here. Guess were stuck using condoms.[/quote]

They don't write articles about the majority of women, including me, who have no problems with it and have found it to be a better form of birth control than anything else.  All of the things you mention are freaky, rare side effects---almost any medical device/procedure will have those. [/quote]

Agree. Very happy with my Mirena, and pretty much everyone I know who has one is happy as well. I've read that it is the most popular option among female OBs.[/quote]
