Q: Things that I know about them pills.\
They start working after 1 month.
Girls who take them get a little bit fatter.
What other side effects are there and do they aply to all brands of "anti-pregnancy" pills?
I also know the doctors give a perscription when a girl has hormon problems. Do they make you extra horny, cause in that case I know I ll have a big problem lol!
