Going back on BC

I'm planning on going back on B/C at the 1 year mark.  I'm looking for something non-hormonal (breast cancer risk in my family is VERY high).  I already have a call into the Gyno but do you ladies have any experiences with non-hormonal B/C?

TIA! Theresa

    I had the traditional copper IUD put in last summer and it's been great.  My periods are a little heavier than when I was on the pill, but no other side effects.

    I have a copper IUD as well, but am one of the unlucky few in which it moved. It is currently lodged somewhere "very high". I am going in for a consult this afternoon to find out more details and will probably need surgery to have it removed. :-( I am just going to go back on hormonal bc for q few years qnd then DH will get a v and I will do Essure (once we hit that age we don't want any surprises). I don't like hormonal bc, but dislike condoms more. If I had to go hormone free, I would probably look into a diaphragm or something.
