How do I (28M) talk to my GF (27F) about potentially getting on Birth Control /u/cmszn Sex

I’ve been with my gf close to a year. I love her and the relationship is great. I’d like to first start by stating I 100% stand by her body her choice. I would never try and pressure her into taking anything she doesn’t want to do. She is currently not on birth control and she told me that in the past birth control has messed with her hormones. Because of that we use condoms when we have sex and to be honest its not really as enjoyable. I would never say this to her but I never had to use condoms in my past relationships and it is a little bit of a bummer. I’m in this for the long haul and lately have been thinking about how if things work out with us I’d need to use condoms for years unless we were trying for kids until she can’t have children anymore (ik im thinking way ahead here). That being said, I know she would need to deal with the side effects of birth control unless we were trying for kids so I never asked about her going on birth control. I recently did some research and found some non hormonal forms of birth control (that do have some side effects) and was wondering if I should talk to her about it as well as how I should talk to her about it? I want reiterate that I understand it’s her body and I’m more than ok with using condoms long term just want some honest feedback.
