    A coil is an amazing and very safe form of contraception - with options between hormonal and non hormonal varieties. Its free on the NHS. It can be uncomfortable but some places will offer a local anaesthetic if you ask but sometimes that's more uncomfortable than the coil itself. Ask your family practise for assistance.
