What is the best form of birth control out there for me?

I don't like the pill because I always forget to take it and when I do, I pay for it. I don't want an implant in my arm, and I don't want to get the shot. I hate having my periods, so is there another form of bc that I could use?What is the best form of birth control out there for me?
Discuss your options with your doctor.


If you aren't very good at remembering the pill, maybe you should get an intrauterine device (IUD) otherwise known as a coil. They are inserted into your uterus by the doctor and work for years without you having to do anything else. If you got the mirena coil, it might even stop your periods. If you have had an STD you might not be able to have a coil.


You could also try a diapragm, but they aren't very good and if you can't remember to take the pill, you probably won't remember to put the diapragm in several hours before sex!


Always use condoms!What is the best form of birth control out there for me?
IUD's are great. I have a Paraguard, which is and IUD that provides 10 years of birth control without the hormones. Will get another one after the 10 years is up. You should check into it.
You could get a Mirena IUD or use condoms.
