birth control
i kinda prefer women who are actually on the pill to answer please
how does the pill work? what exactly goes on in there that makes you not get pregnant?
and how long do you have to wait until it actually starts working?
i've also heard that it can make you gain weight, improve your skin or make it worse, and make you not want to have sex. is that true? has that happened to you?
thanks!

I am not a girl, but you should dig and find out the truth about the pill. Much of what came before is true, the pill tricks a womens body into thinking it is pregnant. The body starts producing the hormones that are used to protect during pregnancy. One of the things the body does is create a natural spermicide to kill sperm. The other side effects you speak of are real and much more.
The hormones that are produced, to be quite frank, can cause a women to be a bitch. This is why they're mood changes from that sweet girl you once knew, to a raving lunatic. (If this happens, the girl should tell her doctor, another form of the pill may work better in that regard.)
I've come to the realization though, that when your lady is being a bitch and she is on the pill, say "Thank you". You're confused, I can see it on your faces, but when she asks, "What the hell are you thanking me for?" You say, "for allowing me to ride bare back", (not having to wear a condom). Explain to her that you know that her moods are often caused by the pill and that you appreciate her for taking the pill for the both of you.
Sometimes that is all it takes, recognition can do a lot to make things better.
And yes, it has happened to me, STOP LAUGHING. I have lived this right along with my wife. She was on the pill for about ten years, (the length they warn you to stay under. Think about that all you girls going on the pill at 14 and 15. You should, for your own health go off the pill at 24, or 25 then, how are you and your husband going to like using rubbers for love making? Don't give me this, well there will be something else by then crap either, there has not been a viable option for the pill in over 30 years.) I have had three kids and I experienced it all right along with her, except witnessing the birth, eww, no way.

The pill basically works out your hormones so that your egg doesn't accept the sperm (well I'm not hitting the nail on the head but that's more or less it). There are different pills but most pills are once a day for 3 weeks of the month and then during your period you don't have to take anything. It normally takes about a month to kick into gear. It can make you gain weight etc but each person reacts to it differently. In most cases it will cause your period to be regulated for ex: you will always get your period on a wednesday in the morning of the week where you dont have to take pills. Hope I've helped =) ask anything I missed.

You prefer that your girl's be on the " pill" so that you do not need other forms of protection. You realize that the pill does protect you from HIV and other forms of sexually tranmitted diseases.
The pill works by increasing the pregnancy hormones progesterone and estrogen. By doing this the pill "tricks" the female body into believing that it is pregnant and does not allow a monthly ovulation thus preventing conception from ever occuring. As for your other questions all of them may be a side effect of birth control pill use.
I certainly did not mean to mean imply that you are 5 months old. At which age you would not be asking such questions about issues as the bcp. By the way if you are female, why would you prefer girl's that are on the pill? Just asking, please do not take
offense.
