Birth control is usually used when people have sex and the woman does not want to get pregnant. It's a more secure way than using a condom, since they say it's 99.9% effective. But there are also other plusses to it. Like the ones I listed in the poll.

And I Shot JFK..heh..maybe it could clear up a guy's acne too? Iono. _unsure.gif

interesting. i'll get some from my friend and spike my brother.

Do you understand what birth control does? stubborn.gif

Murder is the malicious ending of a life by one human being to another. Birth control prevents that life from even happening in the first place.

And there are many other uses for birth control. Some girls have cramps so bad during their periods that they can't even focus during school. I was one of them.

Also, it helps acne.

You can't ban something just because of one aspect you don't like when there are so many other good ones.


I'm really irregular. Sometimes I won't get it every month, I'll get it every two months. && when I get my period, it's soo heavy and painful I can't even stand up straight and I can't even walk normal. It sucks cry.gif

Sort of the same reasons as you..I started a few days ago. I'm using is for acne..I'm using Yazmin and the doctor said that kind wouldn't make my boobs grow or cause weight gain or anything..which is good. My friends boobs grew when she was on it..then she got off..aka stretch marks. yeah..don't want that. But it's so sore there right now =[ Anyway..I don't have sex or anything but I guess my mom also wanted me on it..just incase.?

oh and plus...it makes my periods easy and preeedicatble =]

Birth control is murder. I think it should be illegal.

Abortion is murder. But either way I'm pro-choice.
I don't use it, but I should. Not for sex though. I get cramps so bad, I look like a drug addict with the way I pop advil into me.

Birth control for the sex of course. I noticed that while I was on it, my face cleared up... that was good. The bad thing was that sex became painful at times ;x I'll take my chances now and have him pull out. Haha


I agree it made sex really painful.But now theres this stuff i use called "Yazmin" or something that its nice and really dosnt really interfere with anything.

From what I've learned the pull out method is not effective, and it does not protect from STD's.

It was effective for me until he didn't pull out. I don't have to worry about getting an STD from my boyfriend.

Stupid girl. I regret not being on birth control for that short time :\

Ah well, I learned from it.

Birth control is a nasty nasty NASTY thing.

Yes it will help with acne, and yes it will help you with your period.
In fact, it will completely stop your period, which is the point, right?

But BC is not good for you at all.

We have periods because we are meant to have periods.
What comes out is meant to come out.

BC actually has a lot of estrogen which, in fact, is a hormone we already have too much of. Estrogen gives boys breasts, and it makes girls start puberty too early. Estrogen is in meats and milks because it's what farmers give animals to get them beefy. But most women have such bad period problems BECAUSE of estrogen, and giving yourself more doesn't help. And being on BC for more than 5 years will cause miscarriages and it will put your fertility rate down by 50%.

Sorry, but all of that is complete bull. Birth control doesn't lower your fertility rate after you're off of it. And we don't have 'too much' estrogen. Estrogen is the primary female hormone which gives women the characteristics of their gender. Yes, hormonal birth control does supress natural ovulation and natural menstruation, but it's not bad for you. There's proof that it can actually be beneficial, such as helping with iron deficiency (anemia). You're saying women have period problems because of estrogen? Well, no way! If women didn't have estrogen, they wouldn't menstruate at all. In fact, they wouldn't be females at all.

Get your facts straight before you scare teenage girls who don't know better.

That's because your body has built a tolerance to it.

I've never heard of a doctor or even FDA prescribing hormone adjusters (birth control) to combat acne... basically, it's making your brain believe that your hormones belong to the body of a 70+ year old (or one of which cannot produce a child)... which isn't good.
