Coil, Depo or Implant advice

Has anybody found either of these better than another?

I’m really struggling with heavy periods and bad pms my Gp has suggested the Coil and I am worried about having it in.

I have Underactive thyroid, Hashimotos and Sjogrens disease, so I can’t tolerate some of the previously tried contraceptives including desogestrel and cerazette.

Any advice would help! Thanks

I'm on depo, it's stopped my periods completely, everyone is different side effects I've had are headaches which are now gone and really bad fatigue which I still have, but better than having periods x

I have a Mirena coil fitted. I take warfarin and it made my periods horrendous. After getting the coil my periods stopped. It's different for everyone though but it has been a godsend for me.
