What kind of birth control has worked best for you? 

I'm the most stable I've been for a long time and I'm really worried to add anything to the mix that might fuck me up. I haven't had sex in awhile (part of my recovery) but I've just started seeing someone I've known for a long time now and we're taking things slow and it's great, but damn I don't know what to do about long term birth control. 

I don't really want tons of hormones. But I'm absolutely not interested in an IUD. What's your experiences with various types of birth control? I'm learning towards the nuvaring, if any of you have tried that in particular. 

Thank you!
