Question I am twenty-four years old and I have epileptic seizures and migraines. I have just had my second daughter in march and with my health issues do not want to get pregnant again. My gynecologist put me on the nuvaring after my daughter was born but when I went for the check-up told me that my seizure medicines can make the birth control un-effective. I have had an IUD and had to have it removed plus the doctors say I am to young and will not agree to tie my tubes. Are there any birth contols that do not effect seizure medicines?
Answer The only thing I know of that would be best for you in your state of health is Natural Family Planning. it doesn't cost anything, has no risk and doesn't conflict with any other medicines you may need to take for your seizure disorder. Write back if you are interested in more information or get some information from a good bookstore. The website that I use for information is ccli.org You can call them for assistance.
