diaphragm birth control ???

Has anyone ever used a diaphragm? If so, any comments? I am considering getting off the BCP.
TIA

no sorry, but if you try it let me know how it works. I may be sticking to pills for a while.

I used it and it was ok. I didn't like that we couldn't be as spontaneous. He barely even felt it so that was good. Anymore questions feel free to FM me.

Yeah that was my main problem with it and it's a little messy. I was glad to be done with it.

OMG my mom did too!

soon after we were married, my mom was like 'you know, you should really consider using a diaphragm as birth control' i was like ummm please stop talking to me about this

THEN she told me that she used to put it in even if she 'thought' she would be having sex

i was like WOAHHHHHHH wayyyyyyy TMI

God why do mothers feel the need to tell you this stuff. I told my mom DH and I wanted to try to have a baby this fall (big mistake) because she started telling me about when I was conceived, waaaaay too much information!

Trust me that is way better than your mother telling you they use the 'pull out' method.

I liked nuvaring... was great because you dont have to remember pills everyday and you only have to put it in & take it out 1 time a month.. and can still be spontaneous

It's funny b/c DH and I were having a convo last night about how no one uses diaphragms anymore (random conversation, but he's a doctor and prescribes lots of BC, so I was asking him about it). I think I remember that you need to leave it in for several (8?) hours after it is 'needed' and...that just seemed extreme.

Your mom actually said the words 'pull out method' to you?!!! EWWWWWWWW!



In all seriousness though, I'm going to the gyn in June and hoping to switch to something (i'm on the ortho evra patch now). Has anyone experienced any side effects with the Nuva Ring? Thats what i'm hoping to switch to.

I haven't noticed any side effects. I am really happy with it so far.
