Ok so I took some people's advice and asked my grandmother if I could go on the pill and surprisingly she said YES!!!
But she said she is coming with me to the doctors.
What kind of questions will the doctor ask? like am I sexually active? I'll have to lie to the doctor and say no because she will be there.
I told her it was to regulate my period which needs to be done anyway but she said the doctor will put me on a light dosage.
Will this mean that it wont be as affective with birth control?
I will rate a 5 for all questions answered thank heaps.

Please rate back,

The doctor will ask if you are sexually active. This is a very important question, & you will need to answer honestly. The doctor should ask you grandmother to leave, because it's a very private matter. And if (s)he doesn't ask your grandmother to leave, then tell the doctor you don't feel comfortable answering such private questions in front of your grandmother. Or, you could lie & then when your grandmother is not around, mention to the doctor that you lied & you are sexually active. This may sound weird, but it works. I did it. The doctor is not aloud to tell your grandmother anything you say, it's against the rules. So don't fret. As for the light dosage, no birth control is 100 % effective. So there's a chance of getting pregnant. However whatever dosage it is, it will prevent getting pregnant; so don't worry.

NO but it starts working after a month dose.

Hey as far as I'm aware there is no such thing as a "light" dosage of the Pill as such. There is the combined pill with both hormones and the mini pill with only one but both are equally effective if taken within the correct time frame so no worries!
On the other hand it's really a bad idea to lie to your doctor about anything, including whether you are sexually active. If at all possible let your grandmother come to the doctors with you but wait in the waiting room. Sell it to her as the beginning of you taking responsibility for your own health and wanting to try out a little bit of independence so you get prepared for when you have to do it on your own or some such. You could even go with the idea you'd be a bit embarrassed talking about your periods in front of her. Whatever you think'll work best.
If she absolutely insists on coming in with you and you really can't be honest with her about what you're doing feign an "I forgot something" once you've left the room as an excuse to go back and have a quick chat with your doc informing him/her of the real facts just so they know. All confidential.
Ideally though it'd be nice if you could be honest with your grandmother and explain to her that although she may not approve you are being responsible and taking all the precautions you should be.

A dosage of birth control is just that. There's not adjusting to it. There has to be a certain amount on progestin and estrogen levels in a birth control pill, there is no altering it so don't worry about that. You do need to be honest with the Dr. Your grandmother won't be allowed in the room without your permission and what they'll do is ask you (you'll be away from her) and you just say no and they make up some bullcrap reason why she can't come back there. She shouldn't go back there anwyays it's already embarassin enough having your junk all up in the air without having your grandma in there lol
The questions's they'll ask are: Are you sexually active? How many people have you been with? that's about it. The reason they ask how many people is, the more you sleep with the higher your risk for STD's.

Hi there...
I've never been to a gynecologist, or however it's spelt. But I do know that most likely, you will be with the doctor alone. If not, you could ask to be alone with the doctor.
In the room, the doctor WILL ask you questions about your sex life. You need to answer honestly. The doctor cannot tell if you are lying about having sex, unless your pregnant, which she can tell when she feels your breasts for breast tenderness, or depending on how long you were pregnant, she can feel a baby. There are other means of finding out if you are pregnant. If you are not pregnant, she cannot tell if you are sexually active.
The pill, I think it will still work the same, no matter what it is for. But still, make sure that you don't lie to the doctor, cause the pill she gives you might hurt you because you lied. Tell your grandmother that you got the pill for the period. She probably won't question you at all.
Hope I helped!

well first off you can't lie to them... because if you do it could pose serious problems for you
chances are they will make you be alone with them when they ask you questions and not let your grandma be there. also there is a chance they will examine you "down there" and they will be able to tell you if you are lying and in return could turn you down for birthcontrol (and yes they can do that if they don't think you are ready for it or whatever)
just when you go there tell you grandmother that you aren't comfortable talking about your period in front of her and would rather her wait in the waiting room till your done

She will not be allowed to come in the actual Doctors examining room with you ( because of the exact reason you are worried about....you might not be honest in front of her). Don't worry about a thing, just tell the doctor everything honestly. They will ask about being sexually active and the like, tell the truth. They are there to help.

She can come with you to the doctor but can be left in the waiting room. Just tell her you would be to embarrassed if she were to come in the exam room with you.
They will ask when your last period was, are you regular, probably ask if you're sexually active.
You will have a pelvic exam and will have to have one yearly to get your prescription renewed.
If you have questions about anything related to sex, now is the time to ask. Write them down if you think you'll be to nervous to remember them.
Last I knew a birth control pill was made to prevent pregnancies. There are different brand
names with different dosages because not all ingredients are the same. They all prevent pregnancy. Grandma may just be trying to scare you a little so you don't have sex.
A very good site, if you haven't been there before, is www.coolnurse.com it has info on what to expect if you've not had a pelvic exam before.
It has lots of other great info too and is well worth the time. :)

You definately have to answer the doctor correctly because if you don't, you might not get the right dosage or the right protection you need. Just tell your grandma, as awkward as it may be, that you would feel more comfortable if she wasn't there. She should understand or talk to the doctor before your grnadmother comes in the room maybe that way he can say something like only the patient can be in the room right now. You could always tell your grandmother that you also need the pill to protect you from pregnancy, she should be happy that you are keeping safe. I hope everything works out great!
