Q: What Method Is Best, I Have Hep C

Hi,
I have hepatitis c, my viral load is about 3.5 million, my sub-type is 1a, i'll be starting treatment in about a month so I want to get on a birth control method besides the pill because I have a really hard time remembering to take it. My pick are depo provera (shot), or ortho evera (patch), if you have any suggestions/advice I could use all I could get please.

Thanks, jessica
