non hormonal suggestions
I don’t know if I’m hypersensitive to hormonal
contraception
or this is just how everyone feels on it and we’re meant to just get on with it??

Friendship struggles
One complaining about her
contraception
(having 2 kids), I didn’t know how to react. I think one issue is I’ve lost some capacity for empathy with these things, and am also so easily triggered. I’ve tried backing off but then I feel lonely, so it’s hard to find a balance.

grieving my old life
Fast forward to today and I have now lost my job, and no
contraception
has worked for me. This include the combined pill, mini pill, zoladex and now depo injection. I had a mri about 3 months ago and my results show that my ovaries are stuck to the back of my uterus.

Cube pessary disaster
The ring pessary seems to be in the right place though the nurse thought it wasn’t big enough & may not stay in… I feel violated & tearful despite being a midwife for over 40 years & having used a diaphragm for

coming off all hormones
I’ve had options from my surgeon and they would effect fertility which I don’t want to do so we discussed coming off all
contraception
and using tranexemic acid on heavier days of my natural cycle. How many of you have used this/done this method?

stress
But my question is, are there any women in here who can’t take any kind of
contraception
, because of it causing other health issues, and or as a personal reference. If you are ever late?

dineogest & mirena coil
Now not only that it states very clearly where ever you look so NOT take dineogest whilst on any other
contraception
including the coil…. Yet I’m on the coil?! The question is, has anyone had both before?!

Considering looking for diagnosis
One of my main concerns is being forced into
contraception
as a means of treatment. I’ve taken a period delay tablet several times before containing progesterone and it’s caused me severe anxiety.

Dienogest 2mg
I've declined to take any form of
contraception
whether it be hormonal or non hormonal for the last 4 years, but due to worsening pain and multiple hospital admissions since my laparoscopy, I've had to bite the bullet and try this medication.

Contraception and Epilepsy.
Evening ladies,This is just a quick one to see if anybody else has epilepsy and endo. One of the epilepsy meds is contraindicated with a lot of the pills. I didn't want the coil or implant and my neurologist is taking a while to get back with an answer and my GP is left hanging. I have been taking a

Alternatives to hormonal contraception
I also don't need
contraception
as I swing the other way so it has no added benefits. My question is this: am I likely to be listened to if I say I don't want
contraception
? The last GP literally said 'if you don't want the pill then I can't help you'.

I just don’t know how much more I can take
My surgeon says he wants to go back to combined
contraception
but as I get migraines with aura my GP said no and I just don’t know what I can do. I don’t feel like this is any semblance of a life. I’m miserable and im constantly in pain. Today I’m just feeling hopeless.

Gyne Referral Made
Will a gynaecologist likely do a diagnostic surgery on me with my symptoms, or try and fob me off with some other treatment plan, such as hormonal
contraception
? I don't want to go years with uncertain pain management, especially when it comes to painful sex.

Control endometriosis with diet?
But, they did say I need to be on some form of
contraception
ie pills or the Mirena coil to suppress the growth of endometriosis. Having never used anything to control my hormones before, I thought I would try the pills rather than go for the morena coul.

Adenomyosis help!
I’m trying to stay off hormonal
contraception
because I’ve struggled to find a good fit. Any help/advice/directions would be hugely appreciated.
