A member asked:
I am currently on depo provera contraceptive. it is making me fat and would like to know what other non invasive contraceptive or injection i can take. or what supplements can i buy to balance my homones?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Options: If you believe the hormones are your problem your options are few. The copper IUD has no hormonal component but is pricey & insertion uncomfortable. Condoms/foam/spermicides all avoid hormones but many find them cumbersome. Supplements do nothing to balance hormones.
