I've been on every type of birth control that there is I think; the pill, the implant, Depo Provera and the Mirena coil. The coil is so uncomfortable, I feel like I've had period cramps all the time in the 6 weeks that I've had it fitted and I am going to the doctor tonight to ask them to take it out. Pills make my breasts sore, the implant gives me 2 periods a month and Depo makes me depressed and not interested in sex.
I'm running out of options. I'd love to get my tubes tied (I'm 31, am single, no kids and definitely not wanting any) but everyone says, partonisingly that 'I'll change my mind'. At this point I am using birth control not to prevent pregnancy, but because 'they' say that I might want to become pregnant one day.
Are there any other options? Anyone who has had their tubes tied and regretted it? If I used nothing at all, what are the chance that I would become pregnant? I don't have any problem with getting a termination, but obviously don't want to do that often.
