Birth control
Before getting pregnant I have never been on birth control. I started after my baby was born. He’s about to be 6 months. I first tried out the mini pill then switched to lo Loestrin. I have been having the worst mood swings and anxiety. It’s really hard to control any of my emotions. I have looked at the other options but I’m not sure because they all say depression is the most common side effect. What birth control would you guys recommend for the least amount of emotional impact

The IUD. Copper has no hormones, and the hormone version really only affects your uterus. Only 0.1% of the hormones get into your bloodstream compared to bc pill.
I had the Mirena iud and loved it, would recommend. The copper one works for some women but for me it have me extreme cramping and bleeding
I have the copper IUD as well. I get the same way on birth control, so wanted something with no hormones. It’s been great! I did have extreme bleeding/cramping the first 2 months, but it has calmed down a lot and is back to a normal amount of period side effects lol
