How do you gals feel about something like this? This hasn’t gone through clinical trials so still early stages.

I had such bad reactions to the Mirena IUD and minipill, I’ve been on the oral combo BC since then. I wish I didn’t need hormones but they help with heavy/painful periods (even skipping them), birth control, and the estrogen helps with acne. I’m not sure if I can give myself a shot 😬 I’m pretty squeamish around needles and bad with pain.

The technology uses tiny crystals to achieve both long-term effectiveness and the convenience of injections.

    Yes, like a skin patch or something. It’s crazy to think about because allergies can be deadly. I also had to get the Mirena taken out early so I’m wondering how much of a hassle this would be.
