About the IUD, she talked to her doctor about it and her doctor told her that there was a minor risk of not being able to have kids later, that it was not significant, but if she wasn't willing to take that risk that she should avoid the IUD. My wife doesn't want to take any risk about that, no matter how minor.
As far as hormonal birth control, she was on that worked best and most recently was a low dose pregesterone only pill and that worked well for not making her sick, but it did cause her to develop a skin condition as a side affect. Also it made her very grumpy, irritable and partially depressed (all of them we tried had this effect on her) She never got nauseous from any of them, that wasn't the problem. It was the grumpy, irritable part that was the main problem.
This actually worked very well for birth control, because we rarely did anything at all because of how it made her. She never wanted to do anything when she was on it because she was always irritable and pissed off. About a week or two after she stopped taking it (and all the time before she started taking it) she has completely changed as a person to someone who is very happy, active, and loving life, also very loving and affectionate. Because of this, she refuses to go on any hormonal birth control ever again because she hated the person she was when she was on it.
