I'm 15, and have been on the birth control Seasonal for about a year and a half now. If you are wanting the pill only because of your period being annoying and not because you are sexually active, then you should'nt have to have a physical. What my mom did was just consult a doctor and order them, and once a year i have to go to that place to just talk with someone and make sure things are working ok for me. And then they give you your new pills. I never have cramps, and my period comes only once every 3 months. But to worn you, most birth control pills will cause you to gain weight. I gained about 11 pounds, and I now have a few permanent stretchmarks. I don't regret going on the pill because of the weight gain, but just know, once you gain it, it is quite hard to lose, trust me. My advice is if your period is really bothering you, just make sure your positive you want to start the pill. I think its a great idea though!

Hey I'm Andrea, aka Dre or Angie. I'm 19 and livin in beautiful Colorado! I went to cosmetology school and am in the process of a fashion merchandising degree in college. I am a waitress part time during the school year at a bowling alley/ restaurant & bar, and then a bartender on Saturday nights in the summer at a family owned racetrack. I love sports, I was a cheerleader all throughout high school and played volleyball on the side, and I'm a biiig football fan. Go Broncos & Rams! I also enjoy shopping, fashion, partying, poker, dancing, snowboarding, traveling, sleeping, and doing absolutely nothing with my family and close friends :) I've been through a lot and experienced many things in my short 19 years so far! I love giving advice and am great at it, but when it comes to my own issues I am always at a loss. Ha! Soo, ask away and I'll do my best to help
