Question
Hello.  ia m 29, dont have or want kids and am in a monogamis relationship.  My body cannot handle the extra hormones from the pill.  I get extremly moody, horrible migraines, and gain weight.  Is there anything I can take or do other than condoms?
thanks for all your help.

Answer
You could try one of the progestin only methods, either the mini pill or the implant.  It's still hormones, but only one, and in small doses.  There is the IUD.  At 29, you could probably find a doctor to sterilize you.  None are ideal, but that's all I know.
