On my 3rd kind of bc pill. low dose. i have my period again one week into the new pack. options to not get my period so much? i don't want kids ever

Ablation: If you seriously don't ever want kids, I would suggest a tubal ligation and have your GYN do a novasure endometrial ablation at the same time. I know some GYNs won't do a tubal until you have kids, but I believe its your decision alone. Your doc will likely need to do an ultrasound at least to see if anything might be causing your breakthrough bleeding
