Diaphragms

If you are under age 35, there is not a significant increased risk with the combination of pills and smoking. However, after age 35, the risk of heart attack and stroke increase significantly in women on the pill who also smoke. This effect is seen with the most common pills -- combinations of estrogen and a progestin. It is not seen with progestin-only methods of contraception like Micronor (a pill), Depo-Provera or Norplant.

I take Yasmin 28 which is a low dose pill with the same level of hormone all month instead of the varying levels.

I tried that one...my periods were 7-10 days long!!! YUCK!!! :(
