I'm 25 years old, sexually active, and wanting to change birth controls. I have been on and off birth control pills for the past 7 years. I've tried everything from the mini pill (which gave me endless weeks of spotting), ortho tri-cyclen lo (which gave me mood swings to the point where all I did was cry and freak out over every small thing), Yaz which contributed to a ton of weight gain and headaches to Cryselle (mood swings where I'm super irritable and fatigued). I think I'm done with taking the pill.

I went to see my OB today about switching to either Kyleena or Mirena IUD. She told me about the IUD having less hormones than the pill, and hopefully less side effects on me. has anyone switched from the pill to a hormonal IUD? how did that go?
