Birth control


Question Posted Thursday March 15 2007, 1:37 pm

So I'm going on the pill.
For the sole-reason taht it's supposed to help with acne. (I don't have acne,but I get the odd pimple)

So I was wondering, should i tell my boyfriend when I start it?
I mean we haven't had sex,but he'd be interested in knowing though,right?
Or is it ny of his buisness?

Honestly... it just depends on if you are ready to have sex or not... I don't know your bf... so i can't say that he'll want sex after that... but there is a chance that he mite... and that'll give him a reason to try talking you into it... if your not ready for sex... I wouldn't tell him right away.

Don't tell him. There's no reason for him to know unless you plan on having sex. People are saying you should be honest with him and stuff, but there's more than that involved here. You certainly wouldn't be being dishonest by not bringing it up. If you were to tell him you were on birth control and even the reason why, he may feel like you were implying that you wanted to have sex. It may even make him want to have sex with you. It can really change your relationship if you tell him. When and if you do decide to have sex, that's when you tell him. If he asks why you didn't tell him before say that it was because it didn't come up in the conversation and because you didn't want to complicate your relationship with him. If it does come up in the conversation, that's different from you just randomly offering the information. So, if it comes up go ahead and tell him, if you're planning on having sex tell him, and otherwise, don't tell him.

Just mention it to him casually in a conversation. Say "well you know how my little bursts of acne have been bothering me? Well I decided to get on the pill for it. Hopefully it will help." blah blah blah. If you want him to know, that would be a good way to tell him without making him think you want to have sex. If you don't want to tell him, that's fine too. It's none of his business unless you want it to be.

Hi.

I would tell him, but include why you are on it.


But it really depends on how open you are with him. If you aren't that open with him then, you probably shouldn't tell him.


If you havn't been with him that long or you aren't that serious yet, just don't tell him. And when you get to the point where you two are talking about sex, let him know then you are on it.

well; if you arent using it for actual "birth control" then he doesnt need to know
but in the future with him you might be

i would tell him; just because i would be worried about him finding it; or if in the future having sex talking about BC and condoms and being like "oh by the way i've been on birth control for X number of months..." he might wonder why you didnt tell him...

But dont just bring it up outta the blue...and make sure you are ALONE when you do or it will be VERY awkward...

best of luck!
(and for Acne pills i suggest Ortho-TriCylcen by friend uses it and it's clinically proven to help with acne cause it's high estrigen)

It's your own decision to tell him. He might care, he might not. But if you wanna tell him, then tell him.
