Meet with your doc: The selection of what BC is best for you will depend on a review of your personal & family history, personal needs and the choices available. If you want to avoid weight gain a copper IUD may meet the need since it has no hormones involved. However. this is pricey & painful to place, so you may desire another form. Contact your doc & have a discussion of your needs/options.

Try a copper IUD: Consult a knowledgeable and caring gynecologist about a copper intrauterine device. If it is inserted skillfully and professionally by an experienced clinician, its insertion is very often a painless procedure. Its benefits, contraceptive effectiveness, efficiency, 10 year duration of contraception etc...outweigh its risks and most other considerations. Use condoms too for added STI protection.
