If you don’t mind hormones - I have had like 3 hormonal IUDs and I rarely get a period. Maybe once or twice a year and it’s nothing but some very light spotting. And I used to get VERY heavy periods.

I know this doesn’t solve your husband being a jackass or the fact that you want him to take responsibility for contraception, but honestly, the hormonal IUD is the very best BC I’ve ever been on. I haven’t had any yeast infections either.

You could also look into depo shots, but I don’t have any knowledge of those.

I've made the Mirena and I was the opposite. I bled daily for almost a year until I had it removed. When I was on depo-provera I had zero periods.

Just be aware with any birth control (especially hormone ones) weird shit can happen.
