I knew one girl who had the coil and it got badly infected and had to be removed and she said it was painful as hell! My mum also just had it put in and gets "womb pains" because she doesn't have periods with it but still gets the pains like she's about to come on, she said it was painful getting it put in too. The implant i've heard of a few people who just didn't stop bleeding for like a year?! So no point having it really as sex and bleeding don't really go hand in hand  The injection is the one i'm personally considering  x |

Plus long term use of contraceptives like that have been known to affect conception in later life because the hormonal inbalances and such. And the pill doesnt stop the egg and sperm meeting and forming cells and such - it just flushes it out (most of the time) at your AF because it tampers with the womb lining. Or so Jason Everet says. There are pros and cons of all contraceptives but you'd have to go to the docs, explain your situation personally so they can recommended the best suited one for you and give more in depth pros and cons and such  |
