So years ago I had the marina coil and at the time found I had cysts on my ovaries (shown by scan) i thought the coil had caused the cysts so I had it removed.
I then had a cooper coil but my periods were so heavy I had it removed after a few years.
I then used the combined pill bit found that I couldn't loose weight with it (in have stopped it and now am loosing weight)
Now I am unsure what to use 

I am involved with someone that lives far away so we need something but not everyday. Condoms would be the answer but I am rubbish at using them especially if I have had a few drinks.
I am thinking about trying the marina coil again but also worried - any advice?
