Hormonal IUD vs Withdrawal or pull out method

Side affects can change as time passes. I noticed more side effects the longer I was on it.

I love mirena

Better than copper IUD. Similar in side effects to birth control ring except less effect on sex drive.

I was on a iud for 9 years for endo

Made me gain weight

I have my tubes tied.

I don't recommend going multiple rounds. Otherwise, seemed pretty effective.

Annoying to have to fuss with putting the condom on, and I don’t enjoy the change in sensation while using a condom. But I feel protected against pregnancy. I occasionally rely on pull out method, and the anxiety over my partner accidentally not timing this correctly (ie not pulling out soon enough) negatively affects my sexual experience.

Still can get pregnant with pull out method or anal

I get pretty sick on the pill and with same partner 3.5 yrs no issues but recognize not most effective practice.

It worked but I was terrified I was pregnant until I got my period. I had no sex drive because of this and was incredibly stressed. It worsened my mood as well.

No side effects
