I’m sexually active and my doctor’s appointment is in a week. I’ve been researching different methods of birth control and I just can’t seem to choose between the Copper IUD and the pill. I’ve took the pill before for acne but I hated the side effects. I do know that certain brands have different side effects so I’m not 100 percent against trying it again. However, since I’m going to be on birthcontrol for actually having sex, the Copper IUD seems like a good option too. The only issue I have is the insertion and the horror stories of it moving around, getting lost in women’s abdomens, or having their bodies reject it.

***If you take the pill or have an IUD, could you list what you like about it and your side effects (if you have any).***

Thanks!
