options for birth control Posted: 02-19-08 12:35pm
hello,
My girlfriend and I were talking and she
has decided to stop taking the pill
because she cannot stand the way it makes
her gain weight and look. So my question
is what other forms of non-hormonal birth
control could we use that would be about
as effective as the pill? A combination of
things? Any feedback would be great!
Thanks!

The ONLY thing as effective as the pil,
but ZERO HORMONES is the IUD.
Paragard IUD.
Not all doctors will give them to women,
planned parenthood is the best option for
getting an IUD.

She could try switching to a different
type of pill if she's only tried one.
There are hundreds and they all are
slightly different and might have
different side effects for your gf.
