Contraceptive 'slow release' hormone implants? Any good?


Question:
I'm looking for a long term contraceptive that doesn't require me to remember to take tablets every day- I'm allready on tetracycline and I forget to take those as it is without taking and more. SO, how long do they last? How do they work and what are your personal experiences with the implants? And how and where is it going to be put? Thanks for your help!

Dear Moi,
Before you make any decisions talk with a good doctor. Alot of these new birth control methods are approved by the FDA but do not as yet have a safe track record. Easy is not always the best.Some of the drugs that get put on the market don't show serious affects for up to ten years. Meaning, they could lead to heart, kidney, birth deffects and such.
Stick with a drug that has been proven safe after long term use. Find a way to remind yourself everyday. Much safer in the long run. But talk to a doctor to find out all the info you need.
i use the nuva ring becaus ei can not remeber to take pills either the ring is great i even have a reminder on my coputer to tell me when to take out an d put a new one in
I think the condom is the best,it doesnt only protect u from pregnency it also protects from stds &Hiv.it also does not have any side effects and u can choose from so many brands.
These are about my least favorite form of contraception. They are fortunately not commonly used, but I still see a steady stream of patients who wish to have them removed as they are unsuitable. They are very difficult to do much about once they are inserted. Removal is very fiddly, requires a surgical excision and may leave a scar.

My advise would be to consider all methods of contraception carefully, perhaps a Mirena coil would be an answer for you.
