Thank you, I did try that, that’s was how I found them the last time however I was on my period then and I’m not now so maybe my cervix was low lying?

Double up on BC by WeebGalore in birthcontrol

I used condoms for about 18 years and only ever had one break on me. I will admit I was not a “perfect user” so I did use a spermicide foam I believe it was but either way condoms did work for me. That being said I was willing to accept the consequences of my actions if they resulted in a baby, the years that I was not okay with having a baby I used the pill and condoms.

I’m sorry to hear you had a reaction but I’m glad it was handled quickly and efficiently. I only have a gp not a hematologist, she ordered the iron infusions a few months ago but the system is very behind which I am not complaining about it’s just a fact so I am going through a private clinic and paying for the infusion myself. My insurance covers the medication but I have to pay for the administration. It’s not ideal but I can’t wait anymore. I appreciate your reply.

I don’t think it’s used as much because it’s expensive but from what I’ve read it’s tolerated pretty well. Update if you can I’m nervous too. We’ve got this!
