birth control.
15/f k so i have 'hormonal acne' meaning the kind of acne thats like tiny little bumps all over your face, not big enough to pop or anything and the only way to get rid of it is through using birth control. the problem is, my doctor and parents dont particularly want me to be on birth control. i dont have that bad of periods, i mean they normaly last the full 7 days and there kinda heavy but my doctor said 'unless you have to go to the hospital because your periods are so bad than your fine' so i guess that doesnt count...and im not 'sexually active' so he wont give them to me for that either. but i could be soon so who knows. i just dont know how to get on it because every time i go i always ask to be on it and they always say no :( even though my sister got on it when she was even younger than me! so what should i do?! please help!

16/f
i'm on birth control and i bullshitted the reasons why i should be on it, i told my doctor my periods were really bad..to the point that i couldnt get out of bed (well, it is like that sometimes but not all the time), i had bad skin, and i was sexually active (last two are true).
but before i told her i was sexually active my doctor suggested birth control for my skin, and my periods. just one tiny pill every day.
my mom was not sure about the whole birth control thing, but its true i guess, if you have bad skin and semi bad periods ... narrow it down to one pill. which would be birth control.
since then, my skin has gotten better, ive been protected, and my periods have been wayyy shorter and lesss.
you just need to tell your doctor that you WANT birth control, he cant say no... and if he says no, say your planning on being sexually active soon.. then hell have to do it :P (and he cant tell your parents!)
If he says no.. then i guess youll have to go to a dermatologist to get prescribed to something. good luck!

TELL your doctor, that you want to be on it. Tell your parents that you REALLY need to be on it just incase. If you seriously want to be on it, tell your parents, have a mature talk with them, remind them about your sister getting it when she was younger.
be honest with them and tell them that there is always a possibility of sex and you would feel safer if you were on it.
just have a mature talk about it and hope that helps. =]
