is this true?


Question Posted Thursday March 1 2007, 12:05 pm

please clarify a few things for me about the birth control pill (whether it being a mini pill or the regular pill):

(i know its better to take it at a later age, but i wouldnt desire being a 17 year old mother!)

my mum once told me that if you go on the pill at a young age, you are ment to be taken off it after 20 years usage. if this is true..why?

it can cause inflamed veins in your legs: is this true?

i know some advantages/disvantages of the pill: increae/decrease acne, gain wight, change in moods (depression etc), remember to take it every day, decreases menstural cramps and bleeding and can protct you against diseases such as Pelvic inflammatory disease

if you have any more affects or advantages/disadvantages, notify me.

this seems like the safest birth control method. i dont want to risk damaging my fertility and would like to control my fertility in the future ..if you DO have to be taken off it after 20 years(i'll be 37...a long way off..and i hope to be married with children by then.)

im contemplating this method but would like advice, when i asked my mum a year ago if i could go on it, she said i was too young to go on it for health reasons (which i am NOT aware of) (not because i was too young for sex- although legal )

so any advice from those who are on the pill..or took the pill at a young age would be much appriciated

sorry if this was too long and confusing. i just want the facts so i can tell my mum i know the required info 100% :)

Well you should make an appointment with a doctor to discuss your options. They can give you loads more info on the subject. I'm not sure if you can do it without a parent, but you might be able to just talk to them about it without a parent. That was probably it for me. I took orthotricyclin.......the ortho low is better for people though. There's tons of different kinds out there though. So, just talk to your doc and your mum about it. The doc can help find one right for you and answer any health questions you and your mom have. GOOD LUCK!!!
