how old were you when you first started using contraception; what method did you start with, and where did you learn about it?
|
|
16 after my first child.
|
|
did your mother talk to you about preventing unwanted pregnancy? did she bring it up, or did you? did you discuss it with your friends?
|
no
|
what about school - what did they tell you regarding birth control?
|
we never had any school programs
|
have you tried more than one method? what do you like about the one you're using now, and what don't you like about it?
|
I tried them all. The Pill the IUD, the Diaphram, and then had an emergency Histerctomy.
|
have you had any problems, side effects, etc. with contraception?
|
Yes with the IUD It got lost and had to go to the Doctor to have his pull it out.
|
what would you tell your daughter (real or hypothetical) about birth control? When would you start talking to her about it (or others you've tried)?
|
Yes. I did tell them both. And my oldest is 30 and no children. My 25 yr old daugther has a 5year old.
|
do you always use contraception when you have sex (that is, when not-hoping to conceive)? How important is contraception to you?
|
I had my historectomy at age 32.
|
is the contraception method you use covered by your insurance?
|
yes it was.
|
this conversation makes me think....
|
how lucky I was with my own children even with my son talk about birth control. He is 23 and no children.
