I fI could afford it right now I would be using an IUD... but I can't afford what they want for the IUD and the insertion all at once... so right now I am on low dose BC pills.

I was on depo when I was about 18.... it was horrible. It says that once on the shot that eventually your period will just stop coming.... I had my period for a year straight when on the shot. My Dr was p retty useless so when I told her about it she just blew it off and said that it would eventually stop... well I eventually just got sick of having my period everyday so I stopped taking the depo and went back to the pills.

I keep my pills on my alarm clock.... I take them when I go to bed at night which is always around the same time.... having them on my clock helps me to notice them and not forget to take it. Even though I don't actually have to set my alarm.... so if you go the pill route... keep the pills next to something you use every day... like your toothbrush.
