birth controll and ur period
My priod omes in realy wierd cycles. I will normally always have cramps and nody pains before and durring it and i have major mood swings durring and after it also. its actually gotten to the point where my mom had to buy me herbal pms pills for my mood swings but they dont help that great. I herd that birth controll actually helps ur periode and alot of girls take it to controll their periods but im not sure on if i need them or not. plus most girls that i know of that use it for this reason are like 17 and there bodys are fully developed unlike mine since im not done developing. Is it ok and should i ask my doctor to get some?

You will have irregular cycles for the first couple years of your period. Perfectly normal. I'm 13 and I'm on birth control for my period, but my boyfriend is 20, so I use it for both purposes. But you should really talk to your mom about it, even though its extremly embarresing. I can tell you birth control has stopped a lot of my period pains, and stopped mood swings. Hopefully I helped, since I'm young and am on them.

Consult your doctor to make sure the irregular cycles aren't something else and if your parents are fine with it then your doctor can prescribe BCPs. A roomie of mine has been taking it since freshman and it works for her.
As you've probably heard, some people get side effects or have to switch from pill to pill. If it gets worse, or if new problems start happening, then let your doctor know about it. Other than that any side effects, you shouldn't worry. The BCPs should lessen your cramps and improve your mood at your time of the month. :)

its true it does help most of the time..it would probably be ok, but it wouldnt hurt anything to ask your doctor first.
