What do you take and why do you love it? I HAVE to have BC because I am taking methotrexate for my arthritis. Not looking for anything permanent yet because I CAN get pregnant, just have to stop my weekly shots.

Nuvaring was about the only hormonal BC my body would tolerate. About the only side effect I had was *****iness

I loved the fact I didn't have to remember a pill everyday.

My husband is on methotrexate and because of that I just got the mirena IUD. So far it's fine, haven't had it long though, but supposed to be better then pill cause obviously you can forget a pill and get pg. I would recommend it, it goes for up to 5 yrs.
