Answer
Hello April,
I'm not a medical professional so I just wanted to let you know that. So your doctor does not have any other options to tell you about? I don't personally recommend any hormonal methods of birth control because exactly what you are experiencing. I believe that unnatural methods or hormonal are not healthy for a woman's body. I recommend only condoms ( but they aren't very effective) and the Natural Family Planning method. If you are interested in NFP you can go to allexperts.com and check under birth control for Ramona. She can tell you all about it. The ring, patch and IUD seem risky to me. Please email me at DCHERYL51@yahoo.com and let me know what you decide to do or if you want more info about anything.
Sincerely,
