Each person reacts differently to birth
control, there are many options. It is
def best to consult your doc on which is
best for you..
But.. It is good to educate yourself
beforehand..
Nuva ring is a very low dose of hormones,
and you wear it 3 weeks and take it out
for 1 week. No worrying about missing
pills ect...
I have an iud. But I know many women who
are happy with nuva ring

Iud is intrauterine device. They insert a
.T. Shaped device up into your uterus.
There are currently two on the market,
paragard, and mirena.
Mirena is hormonal, and good for 5 years,
paragard is non hormonal andgood for 10.
They both work by creating a hostile
environment inside of your uterus. They
kill sperm, and make your uterine lining
inhospitable, so even if an egg is
fertilized, it could not implant. You do
still ovulate on both iud's.

It is reversible, but I would think nuva
ring would be a good choice. Especially
with the low hormones and only having to
put it in once a month..
