Side effects


Question Posted Tuesday December 13 2005, 8:58 pm

I'm thinking of going on birth control, and I'm just wondering what works best. I've heard you can gain up to 15 pounds, and I really can't afford that (I'm an actress and a dancer). Also, I don't have a ton of money and I can't have my mom find out. Any cheap pills that don't have a million side effects?

I suggest talking to your Doctor or a Local Doctor about what pills would be best for you. They would know the best ones on the market and the ones suitable for your age and body-type. Not all pills have side-effects. However, the ones that don't have any side-effect are more likely to get your pregnant. And, not all Women gain weight either. It's just because of the Sugar Pills that are given, which aren't even needed.

Not all women gain weight while on birth control. I was dieting when I started birth control so I never gained a pound. I have a friend who also never gained weight even though she wasn't dieting.


All birth control has side effects. However, just because it has a side effect doesn't mean it will necessarily have one for you. I would visit your local health department or planned parenthood office. They can better explain your options and help you get the birth control that's right for you. They tend to be free or low-cost so it wouldn't be expensive for you. Just be aware that you may have to try a couple different pills before you get the one that's right for you. If you do have side effects, contact the person that prescribed them to you and they will usually switch you to a different kind.

well unless your over 18 your mom has to get them for you. the ones with the least side effects are the ones they dont work as well. whatever you do DONT do one of those pills that give you only 4 periods a year because the long term side effects are unknown and they can make you infertile in the future
