right now i have the iud in place but i want to remove it, i am not good at pills, the depo makes me fat. I want another baby i just am not sure im ready. the strings got lost from my iud and I have had so many problems from the iud. Please tell me what you think

If you are not sure if you are ready for another baby, and you dont like the pill or depo, I would either wait it out with the iud, or maybe try the patch, or just use male condoms. Just until you know forsure what you want. Condoms, if used properly are 99% effective birth control. Give yourself more time to think about the baby, and soon you will come to the right decision for you. In the meantime, protect yourself, even if it isnt with the iud.

I think that will work for a little while at least my boyfriend has never liked using condoms though.

Well if he is not ready for a baby at the moment either, he better respect wearing the condoms! I mean, if the iud is effecting your health, then it is best to remove it. Have you ever tried the patch?
