Are you looking for the best birth control option? You’ve probably realized there aren’t many great options out there.

Here are the main options out there + my recommendations:

1. Birth Control Pills: Many people experience side effects with oral birth control pills.

2. Paragard (Copper IUD): Can lead to heavy bleeding and cramping, as well as potential copper leaching into the system.

3. Mirena IUD: Some users report severe side effects, including menopause-like symptoms, due to high progestin levels.

4. Newer Generation IUDs:
• Kyleena: Lower dose of progestin (19.5mg) compared to Mirena.
• Skyla: Lowest dose of progestin (13.5mg), less likely to cause menopause-like symptoms.

Consider discussing these options with your healthcare provider to find the best fit for you
