What are the good and bad affects of birth control that are common?

I’m 14. I don’t want to start taking the pill because I’m sexually active cause I’m not. But I hear that it can causes a lot of benefits such as fuller hair, acne control and more. Are these true true? and what are some other ones? And how can I ask my mom to let me start taking it but not so I can go out and have sex. Thanks!! :)

the shot is called a depo shot. I prob spelled that wrong. I get it every 3 months. it stop my perios and I dont have acne at all when im on it. for some people it maks thm gain weight but it makes some loose it as well. and justexplain to your mom why you want on it.

Answer #2

It does NOT make you put on weight thats just a myth .. I dont know anybody who has put on a single lb just by going on the pill and all my friends are on it ! And ye there are certain ones that you can get that will help with acne and make your hair fuller it also takes away period cramps and makes your period regular and a lot lighter… Xo:)

Answer #3

some of my friends hvae told me it makes cramps easier…But a friend also told me she gets this shot every three month…and it’s a long lasting birth control…

Answer #4

I FORGOT TO MENTION!!!

that I almost had to take cause I head a medical issue that I’m too embaressed to mention that I still have but my mom was just really strongly against so she made me take somthing else that had less of an effect

Answer #5

Not only can it make your hair fuller it can make you fuller. Can gain upwards of 25lbs from it. Don’t take it unless needed.

Answer #6

You should probably wait a few more years. Why put more chemicals and hormones in your body when you don’t actually need it.
