Birth Control
IUD
Hear real people share their very real experiences with different methods of birth control.

A former pill and implant user, Jenna started using the Mirena IUD when her doctor suggested it a few years ago. The implant was fine, but now she’s really in love.
Jenna experienced spotting for the first 6 months, but that was no big deal. Now she has consistent and really light periods—no more than 2 days of bleeding a month.
Jenna’s Mirena was covered by her copay. But if she had to pay out-of-pocket, she’d still choose the IUD for its many benefits and so that she wouldn’t have to bother paying for another method every…single…month.
