xocaribbeangrl32 answered Wednesday December 22 2004, 12:06 am: ~* when your period comes around complain how much it hurts and say it alwyas hurts this bad and it really irregular, then, buy making this known to your parents, tell them you heard that the PILL can lessen your periods to four times a year and ask them if you could try it out...

southernchick answered Saturday December 18 2004, 12:40 am: you just have to talk to your mom about ur period.. and say that you have bad cramps or what not... just say you have period problems and your irregular and you've heard birth control can fix that!
CMONEY08 answered Friday December 17 2004, 9:14 pm: Just make sure that you are ready to lose it and dont rush yourself into it. Make shure that before you tell your parents that you need birth control, that they wont be dissapointed in you for wanting to lose it before marriage. In my beleif, I am waiting until marriage. If you don't think you can do the same, get on birth control right away. You don't want to end up getting pregnant. Just make shure this is a decision that you will not regret because you can never take it bak. [ CMONEY08's advice column | Ask CMONEY08 A Question ]
Stephanie4lchs answered Wednesday December 15 2004, 7:07 pm: If I were you, I'd go for it! If you're absolutely sure, then do it!! He seems like a great guy. About the pill. Tell your parents that your period is acting crazy and you want to stay regular. Or you can go to a clinic & get them. Or you could call up an older friend & beg. HaHa! Well, hope I helped!
xObroKen68x3 answered Wednesday December 15 2004, 5:39 pm: Don't worry about asking your parents about birth control. Most of the time it doesn't even really help all that much. Just make sure you use a condom and that you are ready. Don't go into something that you really don't want to do. Follow your heart! [ xObroKen68x3's advice column | Ask xObroKen68x3 A Question ]
Daisy answered Wednesday December 15 2004, 7:14 am: you don't have to tell your parents you want to go on the pill. You can tell your doctor and that will be confidential. A lot of people go on the pill because they get really bad period pains or really bad spots [ Daisy's advice column | Ask Daisy A Question ]
taycarmody23 answered Wednesday December 15 2004, 1:10 am: ok... well, you should tell them that you need it bc u have irregular perdiods, or for you skin maybe... but I dk.. I mean, sex is a huge deal and just this line you wrote "but i think im ready to lose it" tells me that you may not be so sure. IF you can wait 'till marriage it's the best thing to do. If you think that he IS the one you'll marry... just be careful.
Beccers_boo answered Tuesday December 14 2004, 11:42 pm: I know this sounds bad but if all comes to its end you can tell your mom that your period has been getting really bad... and horrible pains. And that you know it is abnormal. Then ask her if you can go on the pill to stop the cramps. I know thatis totaly violationg your parents trust but if you have 2... then well.
sweetcatastroffi answered Tuesday December 14 2004, 6:40 pm: if you haven't done anything but kissing, why don't you experiment on other things before jumping into sex. you should explore each others bodies before jumping into that. that way, you can be sexually pleased but still wait a little while to lose it.

x3_x_Georgia_Girl answered Tuesday December 14 2004, 4:43 pm: Hey! If you really dont want your parents to know, lie and say either one of two things, your periods happening every 18 days and is not on track, because one of my best friends has to be put on birth control because of the same exact reason, or if you do, and only if you do have acne that is not going away, you can also be put on birth control for that, because my cousin is on the pill for that reason, but make sure before you decide what to lie about that you got all the facts together, so it'll be believable!
xbrunettecutiex answered Tuesday December 14 2004, 3:51 pm: Just tell your parents that you feel that you are ready to have sex with your boyfriend and see what happens. If you are mature and come to them first they will probably be more understanding. But if you just cannot tell your parents there are always clinic's or tell your mom that your period has been really heavy or you have really bad cramps so she will bring you to the gyno and ask for them there. Your dr cannot mention it to her. [ xbrunettecutiex's advice column | Ask xbrunettecutiex A Question ]
xoxhayley answered Tuesday December 14 2004, 3:46 pm: I know exactly what you mean, i was sorta of in the same situation.. but the only thing to do it tell your mom that you just wanna have a talk with her.. (make it as calm as you can.... and very understandable and make sure she knows that you know all about everything to do with sex and pregnancy so you want to be carefull because your ready- and that you wanted to let her know.) It will happen sooner or later and if your ready that just have a good conversation with your mom and be understanding, and have her be to. Your making the right dicision with the pill and condems cuz you wanna be safe. And you and your boyfriend sounds great :) GOodluck with everything [ xoxhayley's advice column | Ask xoxhayley A Question ]
perfectangel2171 answered Tuesday December 14 2004, 3:41 pm: do what i did and tell them that you need it to regulate your period. Tell them that you have really bad cramps and that it's really unregular oor you can go to a planned parenthood place and you can get birth control without a prescription and without your parents knowing. [ perfectangel2171's advice column | Ask perfectangel2171 A Question ]
Eyesinoceanwaves answered Tuesday December 14 2004, 3:01 pm: Well, i myself am doing exactly what you are. I have been with my boyfriend for almost 2 yrs and we have done nothing but kiss. I'm glad to hear that you are waiting this long and i'm glad you want to be extra safe. i have been on birth control for over 2yrs now and i started mine because i had irregular periods. You can call planned parenthood and they will give you birth control without your parents knowing. But if you have irregular periods, they straighten them out by going on the pill. Good Luck and if you have any more questions you can just ask. [ Eyesinoceanwaves's advice column | Ask Eyesinoceanwaves A Question ]
Scribble answered Tuesday December 14 2004, 2:58 pm: I too have a 'special someone' and we do a lot of stuff. I'm sure you got lots of answers on how to get the pill without telling your parents, but i have one extra bit of advice. Even if its hard, get it! The pill is (in my opinion) the best way to protect against unwanted pregnancy- condoms can break and i dont think they are safe enough. And trust me, a pregnancy scare changes the way you look at life for the worse. Be safe. [ Scribble's advice column | Ask Scribble A Question ]
Drea answered Tuesday December 14 2004, 1:48 pm: Your parents don't put you on the pill, your doctor does and as long as you are over 16 then your parents don't need to know. But if you do need an excuse then say that your periods are heavy and your (school, work) nurse says you should think about going on the pill. I do think you should talk to you parents about this instead though. [ Drea's advice column | Ask Drea A Question ]
crazy answered Tuesday December 14 2004, 12:49 pm: first of all if you are under 18 then i dont think your ready and if you really think your ready and your over 18 then you should just use a condom they normally work. and why would your parents have trust with you and then you want to break it thats not cool [ crazy's advice column | Ask crazy A Question ]
sunshine1030 answered Tuesday December 14 2004, 10:32 am: ok well first of all, you say you've done nothing but kiss. if that's really the case, i would suggest doing everything else before you have sex, to make sure you are 100% comfortable with the idea. if you still decide you are, then you could either tell your parents that you have really bad cramps, or that your period's been really irregular (but that's a tricky one because they can find out if your lying or not), or depending on how old you are, you can go to planned parenthood or your doctors office on your own and get a perscription for it w/out ur parents knowing. but you have to be 18 to do that. i hope this helped, and good luck [ sunshine1030's advice column | Ask sunshine1030 A Question ]
jamziix16 answered Tuesday December 14 2004, 10:13 am: i'm in this problem too. you can tell them that your cramps are really bad, and you'd like them to go away. that's what my sister's on it for. or you can just go out there and tell the truth. hopefully your parents will understand! good luck! :o) [ jamziix16's advice column | Ask jamziix16 A Question ]
mysticpixie05 answered Tuesday December 14 2004, 9:35 am: just ask your parents if you can get on birth control. when they question what for just tell them you would like to get on it to help reguate your menstral cycle. if theywont let you then you just have to go to your doctors and talk it over with him/her. anything done and/or said is strictly confidential.

kittyluvr1826 answered Tuesday December 14 2004, 9:06 am: If I were you, i would rethink doing it at all. you have pleanty of time left in life to find someone you really love. Wait until you are married, or when you are ready to get married, you may regret having done this so early in life.

alisonmarie answered Tuesday December 14 2004, 6:44 am: First, congrats on planning on taking precautions before starting to have sex. And using two forms of birth control is the most responsible thing you can do. Now, how to do it?
You can see your doctor, confidentially, and ask her/him about the best options for you. They may be able to provide you with free samples of the pill, or a prescription that you can get filled at a clinic which offers sliding scales.
A sliding scale means that you pay only what you can afford, and thus your parents don't have to know. A good example of this type of service is Planned Parenthood.
Of course, you could also consider being open and honest with your mother about your situation. Most parents do want their daughters to remain 'pure,' but they are also realistic. Depending on your age, your mother might be upset but willing to support you - helping you make appointments with a gyno, etc. Your normal insurance will cover the cost of a birth control method as well - but your mother would have to be told in advance so she didn't get the news in an unexpected way.
If you're not up for that, then you can make appointments without a parent/legal guardian at certain clinics. Or you can tell your mother you'd like to get on the pill just in case - so that you can be responsible and take control of your body. If I was your mother, I'd want to know you were protecting yourself rather than risking pregnancy or an STI. [ alisonmarie's advice column | Ask alisonmarie A Question ]
