Well im a bit young for birth control. All i want to know is how can you get on it with out having to tell your doctor your sexually active. Also what are your experiences with it. Im just curious because i hear about it all the time and i want to get things straight.

I was going to say that, but I don't know about it being free. I've a friend who received hers through Planned Parenthood and her mother did not know about it. Though it may depend on your state and different laws and such. Here's a link with a LOT of info:
http://www.plannedparenthood.org/birth-con...ol/the-pill.htm

I think you could really just walk in and ask about it. And here:
http://www.plannedparenthood.org/birth-con...pelvic-exam.htm
If you read the bottom of the last link, you'll see that it may cost quite a bit to get an exam--but the exam may be avoided, and the above goes more into detail about it.

I've been on the pill for, what, 5-6 months, I think? I was put on it by my gyno due to irregular periods and it's been working pretty good, actually. It regulated my extremely irregular menses--you bleed every month even if it's not an actual period-period, though--and the cramps have been SO much better. It made my skin flare up the first 3 months but now my skin is clearer, so that's good. It made my boobs bigger, also >.> Hahah. I got most of the normal side effects. And I think it made me gain weight, which was a big bummer, but it can have the opposite or no effect on your weight--it all depends on the pill and the user. I'm on Yaz, by the way.. I hate how it's all over magazine ads :x.
