Default Birth Control


Since I am currently pregnant I can tell you what doesn't work!

Depo didn't work for me, after surgery I bled on it non-stop for six months and had to go off it. It also slowed down my weight loss, as soon as I went off it my weight loss picked up significantly. The pill is not advised because of malabsorption. The patch is good but only if you are under 200 pounds, I didn't look to see where your weight is. My doctor recomended an IUD but my co-pay was $250.00 and I didn't have it at the time. Sooooo......My husband and I in our infinate wisdom decided on condoms and spermacide until he could get time off his new job for a Vasectamy. Ta da! I am due in April. So as I said this is what didn't work for me. Hope I helped
Mary
