Am currently on the pill and have been for some time, having been in a relationship for 7 years, but have recently decided that I'd like to have a break from it. Was wondering if there is another effective form of contraception that would be suitable? Wouldn't consider the injections and I'm too young for a coil and would rather not go back to condoms, so was wondering if there's anything else out there?

Have you ever thought about getting an IUD? That stands for Intra-uterine Device. It's placed in your vagina and stays in place for up to 5 years without worry of getting pregnant. The downside is that initially, you may have worse menstrual cramps or heavier periods. The upside to that is that after a few months to get used to your system, your cramps will decrease greatly, if you have them at all, and your menstrual flow will be shorter and lighter than ever. You may quit having one altogether. Years ago the IUD was somewhat controversial, but now they've been well researched and are a great option to taking a daily pill.

you have assorted recommendations. you ought to have an implant, that's inserted merely decrease than the floor. you ought to truly have a coil geared up. This is going interior your uterus. in my view i will't think of approximately that with out crossing my legs and feeling slightly faint! The contraceptive injection would tournament you - you in basic terms want this as quickly as each and every six months, and it stops you having classes altogether. although, it may take time to restart them once you come off this - so no longer perfect in case you're questioning of having greater little ones. The mini-tablet works otherwise to the mixed tablet that's sometimes used. The downsides are which you would be wanting to be greater good approximately what time you're taking it, and this is slightly much less efficient. finally, non-latex condoms are widely obtainable - attempt greater chemists like Boots. in case you're brave adequate, ask the assistant and notice in case you're able to cause them to blush! There are solid and undesirable factors approximately all of those issues - it truly relies upon on your priorities - think of approximately whether you will you will desire to take the tablet or complication to apply a condom. medical doctors are being instructed to push contraceptives that do away with 'person errors' from the justifications for failure. So, in case you verify once you're next on the medical doctors (which I presume would be quickly in case you're pregnant!) they might desire to have some leaflets in case you ask.

Nowadays, a small hormone implant device can be attached under the skin in your upper arm to provide effective contraception. It is painless and can last between one year and three years depending on the type used. definitely worth looking into.

Maybe you can use a diaghram or a female condom or a patch. The patch is nice because you can put on your body and it slowly releases hormones, its the same idea behind the pills but easier because you can put it on and forget about it for a while.

For extra protection can be used with spermicidal jelly.
Avaliable from boots.

this isn't really the place to ask as people give out a lot of bogus advice, go and see your doctor.
