    I haven’t taken it, but if you are looking for contraception with limited side effects the copper iud is a good choice.

    Any hormonal birth control has symptoms and side effects and can cause weight gain. How many and how much will differ greatly from person to person.

    As for co-cyprindiol it has been largely used in recent years as a treatment for polycystic ovarian syndrome. Many report great success but the side effects range from mild to very scary. Perhaps jot down the pros and cons to each and make a decision from there. With any hormonal birth control, you should monitor your symptoms and your mood daily, for the first 90 days.
