What forms of birth control can be used post-op??

Haven't seen this question asked before and I need some answers. The Pill, I read, should not be used because it can not be stored in the body after surgery very well. The Depo Provera injections should not be used because of the same concept, the body is not able to store it in the muscle as long because of the rapid weight loss. I haven't had any children yet so my OB will not insert the IUD. The new patch will not work either. Am I just stuck with condoms and spermicide? There has to be another solution. Any help on this topic would be very much appreciated. Thanks, Rachel
