My Gp is being ageist and refuses to prescribe the pill to over 35s.
Therefore the other options are: injections, implant or the Mirena coil.
I am considering injections in the first instance because I can't quite envisage to be fiddled with down below after the gruelling birth I had recently. I think I might go for the Mirena in a few months so was thinking about having a couple of cycles of injections in the meantime.
I worry a tad about the side effects of injections and also the fact that one might not have a period whilst on it because then how do you know it is working .
Any experience or views gratefully received.

No more pill for me, are injections reliable and well tolerated?
