Birth Control


Question Posted Friday January 5 2007, 11:49 pm

Ok...I'm 15/F and I was wondering if it would be a good idea to tell my mom that I want to go on birth control just in case something happens between me and my boyfriend. Or should I go on it when I am positive that something is going to happen? And do you think it's ok for a 15 year old girl to lose her virginity or do you think I am too young? Thank you.

hey hun. I lost my virginity when i was 14. there is nothing wrong with doing it young. birth control helps but it also helps with acne and regulating periods. i hope that helped.

i was 15 when i lost mine. and i think it would be a good idea to go on birth control. even if nothing will ahppen for a while, the pill can help with acne and regualte your periods.

if you and your mom are really close, then tell her you want to go on birth control. its okay to be on birth control if you aren't sexually active, it helps your period out. honestly age doesn't determine whether you are too young to lose your virginity i think your emotion capacity & your matureness determines whether you are ready or not.

I think its too young. If you look at my colum, you will see me telling countless people this. At a young age like this, you have sex = boyfriend loses all respect. My friend had sex and the next day her boyfriend insulted her, hit her and threw her on the ground. I would avoid sexual intercourse at all costs. other things (try to avoid them) but if they happen, they happen. Good Luck

I think that you are too young to lose your virginity at this point. So many things can happen that a person just isn't ready to handle at the age of 15! Anyway, birth control will not solve all of your problems. Think about STDs that can be contracted... I'm not saying that your boyfriend, or you have an STD, but there are a lot of risks. Being on birth control and having sex is pretty much like having unprotected sex, only you probably won't have a baby. I'm just telling you to be very careful and think about it a lot.

I think it is a good idea, but if your mom is the type of person to flip out about stuff like that, I'd tell her you'd want birth control to ease your period some. But if she's the type of mom that understands, I'd just tell her the straight up truth. I'd go on it just in case, that way you don't have to rush to get it. But then again honey, there's always condoms.

Honestly, the only person who can answer your last question is; you. Ask yourself this: Are you mentally, physically & emotionally ready for sex? Are you comfortable with your body? Are you scared? Are you having doubts about it?

If most of the answer to those questions are a no, you shouldn't be having sex. But it is totally & completely 100% your decision. Don't let anyone influence you to do something you don't want to. I'd seriously think about it for a while. Because usually sex can complicate things & make the relationship hard. But if you do decide to do it, make sure you know all of the consequences, and make sure that you're completely comfortable with it, and that you wanna do it completely.

it's all up to you. if you think you're ready, metally and physically, to lose your virginity, then go for it. it's a personal decision, and don't ever let the fact that, "that everyone else is doing it", or anything else. just do it when you're ready. your virginity is something that you can never get back. haha sorry for going on and onnn. but yea, personally, i think that it is a good idea to tell your mom that you want to go on birth control. it's better to be ready before hand instead of waiting until the last minute and being unprepared. it's better to be safe than sorry. i hope i helped. :]

virginity is a mental state of mind, if you think your ready to lose it, than it doesnt matter what someone else says to you. i think you should go on the pill now that way you'll be used to taking it everyday at the same time and won't miss a day. it's good that your being safe already and your mom should understand that.

you lose your viriginty you know there's no going back, just make sure that you and your boyfriend know that you love each other and your sure things won't go south afterwerds.

I think that whenever you know your relationship WON`T change is when you should begin having sex. There`s no set age. You can`t go into having sex saying, "after this I`m going to love you.." because you should already love them. You know?

I think it`s a very mature decision of you to decide to go on the birth control pill. I`m sure your mother will think so as well. You should definitely do this now! If you think that there is any sort of possibility & you really LOVE your boyfriend, you should do it ASAP. It takes a while for the pill to kick in as well, so you`ll have a headstart. =]

I think it's too young if you can't handle it. Because there's so many problems attached with having sex and getting pregnant. Just be prepared for the worst.
I guess you can ask to go on birth control but i dont know if your mom will take you there to get it.

You should be prepared before it happens. But being 15, is a bit young I suppose.

Just be sure what you are doing and have a backup plan. There's also things to think about.

Protection.
STDS
Getting pregnant
Your parents possibly disowning you?
Your boyfriend possibly leaving you?
How you really feel about your boyfriend. It shouldn't be like.. a teen love thing, were I love you is thrown around everywhere. I've been through that and it wasn't good.

And if you happen to get pregnant, I doubt your parents will want to pay for an abortion or take care of your kid. I'm sure they wouldn't want to worry about their daughter getting possible STDs.

But, just go birthcontrol if you can. You can always go for the sex reason OR that your cramps hurt so much.

Do what you want though but only if you are ready to! Just because you're in the "heat of the moment" doesn't mean you really HAVE to have sex.
