You can get an IUD. Some women have problems and some of the stories are about the old ones but I have a newer plastic one inserted and I haven't had any problems. I use Minera. But you only have to replace it once every 5 yrs and a doc inserts it.

Get an IUD (coil) fitted. If you know that you dont want kid for atleast 5 years. I'm 23 and a half and had one fitted when i was 20 years old because i was studying. even though i was in a relationship i was sure i did not want children. I have never been pregnant nor had any accidents while on it.
Your doctor will need persuading though . As a young woman who has not had children, the cervix will be very tight....this does make insertion extremely painful but the peace of mind is well worth it. I believe it does not hurt so much to remove if you change your mind.
There are two types with hormone (lighter periods) and without.
Everything comes with a risk- perforated cervix, it may travel into the stomach, it makes periods heavier.

i personally reccomend the contraceptive injection.. if your married, then theres not exactly the risk of STI's.. the user failure is out of the question becuase, as long as u keep your 12- weekly appointments(as in 1 ever 12 weeks), ur safe, and you dont need to remember to take the pill all the time. It also has the added benefit of stopping your periods(in most women, after ur 2nd or 3rd injection) so you save money on sanitry products too!!
iv been on it for 2 years now, and i would never use anything else! only thing is, it can make you a little weepy at times, but its the same as pmt, so its not too bad. hope this helps.

IUD (coil) is the best thing next to sterilisation its 99.99% effective it lasts for ten years and is effective right away you get an internal like a smear and the just pop in in its like a t shape stick but its copper i think and it prevents the sperm meeting the egg you still get your periods the first 3mth are heaver and last a few days longer but then that's you for 10 years you are in a long term relationship so no condoms etc. i have just had my 2nd child and had one fitted it was fine you bleed well more spotting for a few days but that's it well worth getten for long time contraception

after I had my baby i got an implanon fitted. Its an implant about the size of a match that you get inserted by a doctor on the inner part of ur upper arm under local anasthetic. It doesnt hurt at all and it lasts for three years. Messes your periods up for a few months tho, you can bleed on and off at random times and them once your body gets used to it they will stop. Its supposed to be one of the safest methods and if you change your mind about having a baby you can have it removed and be fertile again within a few weeks

An IUD works for 5 years and then there is another one that will last up to 10 years. You don't have to think about it or worry about it. I would say that is the best one if you want protection for that long and don't want to worry about any pills or shots

The birth control pill is fine...whatever you do don't go on the depo shot...I had been on it for 2 cycles, and had a very bad allergic reaction to the second shot...so I had to deal with this reaction for the whole 3 months the shot was active. I then tried getting pregnant after and the shot had stopped my body from ovulating...I had to take clomid to get pregnant...use the pill.

i cant believe a 26 year old is asking this question!!!
condoms, the contraceptive pill, the coil, the contraceptive injection. go to your gp or practice nurse and talk with them about which is the safest for you and which one will suit you.

If you are really 26 you should know your options of birth control by now!!! See a doctor.
