It is an implant which goes in the opposite arm you write with and it can stay in for up to three years. You dont even know its there and it can be taken out whenever you want. It has a website just search it in Google
Mirena is also another type of low maintenance and long last birth control. Its good for five years. The doctor puts it in your vagina for you.
I like anything thats low maintenance.
You can get depo, you have to get a shot ever 3 months. the patch is weekly.
The downsides and upsides to these are with the Depo, there is a chance that you will have NO PERIOD!!! That goes for the Implanon also.
And the marina your period will be heavy. [ khadiya's advice column | Ask khadiya A Question ]

Your doctor will probably ask you a few questions about your period, such as do you have cramps, and do you get a heavy flow... ect. The BC will help reduce all the normal icky-ness of your period, reducing: flow, cramps, days it lasts, fatigue and bloating
(for most people that is. Before i was on BC, i had a really light period that lasted two days, never got cramps and/or bloated. But after having taken it it really messed me up, and now i have horrible cramps, my lower back hurts while i'm having my period. it lasts for what feels like forever and i get really fatigued. and this is all even after i've stopped taking the BC, so just beware)
If you tend to be an already emotional person, i'd suggest asking for something with a lower dosage, because yours moods will be really crazy for a while, it takes up to 6 months for your body to get use to BC.
Talk to your doctor about the different kinds, and make sure to ask questions, some BC's may not be right for you.
