If you're considering getting it...make sure you remember it doesn't protect from STD's! Use it with a condom!

QUOTE(Chessboxxa 101 @ Feb 10 2007, 10:57 PM)  Random thought: I always wondered what happened to guys who use birth control? Like do they develop those steroid side affects? lol Lol. I wouldnt want to know what happens.  And yes i know they dont prevent STD's. But im planning on asking my doctor during the next check up about it and then new shot preventing cervical cancer. I might also just tell the doctor the truth. |

I went on the patch, Ortho Evra, in October of 05. I was on it for like 5 months? It is a bit of a hassle. Also, it made having sex uncomfortable because... well, let's just say semen isn't supposed to sting. I'm on the pills now, Ortho tri-cyclen. It's a hassle remembering to take the pills. Basically the same side effects for me as the patch, however I do like the pills more. I may try out the nuva ring, but I don't think I'll like it.
Gardasil, everyone needs that. I should be getting that next time I go to the clinic. And I am way past due for a pap smear. |

My friend uses something called 'Seasonel' or something. It makes it so she has one period per season (4 per year). She got it originally b/c she had horrific cramps during her period. But I guess she's sexually active now, too, so ...
You really don't have to tell your doc you're sexually active. And remember, birth control is not 100% safe. If you can't get birth control, use a condom! Also, I'm not sure which way it is, but birth control either helps prevent breast cancer or is linked to it. It's one of the two :/ I forgot which. ^_^" |

well im on bc to regulate my period.. i had to program a daily alarm on my cell to remind me to take it ... but then i went out of the country and with the time difference i messed up my cycle badly ...
** you should be honest with the doctor and explain everything to him/her they are there to help .. trust me i was a bit worried my self i had never been on the pill and when they had to put me on cause i had my period for 2 straight months he asked many questions this is my moms gyno who knows me since i was a baby telling him i was sexually active was not that easiest and though i am an adult and im sure my parents assume i am not a virgin i did not intend to have them told the truth |

you say "no." when they ask.
 I'm on it.. they said it would help me gain weight..it didnt. they said it would help with cramps..it didnt. they said it would help with acne..it didnt. but it did regulate my period..which was why i got on it. and im not pregnant so i guess it was a good thing. |

You have to tell them your sexually active but they can not tell your parents without your permission because they can get fired for breaking your confidentiality. Ive been on OrthoEvra which is the patch and the pill. I always forgot to take the pill but i was on the patch for 2 years and I never had any problems with it. Alot of people say they get sick from it though and I guess they arent supposed to be giving it out anymore. My sister was on the depo shot and everyone says you gain alot of weight but she didnt gain any. She weighs 104 lbs still. One bad thing though sometimes you dont get your period and sometimes you can get it for weeks at a time

if you're worried about your parents finding out, the easiest way to get it is to go to planned parenthood. If you're under 18, the initial exam is free and you just have to pay somewhere between 15 and 20 dollars a month for the pills.

i was on the patch for a while. only problem for me was that when i would mess up and miss a week, my next period would be HELL cause id cramp so bad but thats basicly it for me. planed parenthood does charge, in my state(IL) at least. i dunt think i spent over $200 the first time though, for the patches(3months) and exam. i havnt gone for over a year so im not sure. i should go soon and ill post what i find out.
