Contraception: OCP come in almost too many types to mention. One of them may be more appropriate for you based on your specifics. Pills are based on a 28 day cycle, mimicking your natural cycles with a pause for menstruation. Some women choose to take pills continuously to reduce their menstruation to once every several months. Talk to your doc about the choices including IUD and other alternatives.
