Loloestrin: 10 mcg bc pills or depo-provera injections, and if u want no more fertility, you could get in office essure tubal, takes 5 minutes, no cutting, and then after that u can get an in office endometrial ablation, takes 8 minutes, no cutting, that will get rid of the endometrium so no periods or very light periods if it works the way we want it to i offer both of those procedures in office.
