I'm 18; am I too young to be taking the Pill?!


Question: I'm 18; am I too young to be taking the Pill!?
Are there any side effects to taking the Pill at this age, or at any age, for that matter!?

Your help is much appreciated!.Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
Nope, 18 means you're physically an adult!. Unless you're unusually underdeveloped for your age (eg you haven't had your period yet) you can definitely take the pill!. Side effects vary from person to person, and most people won't have side effects at any age!. Being 18 shouldn't increase your chance of side effects at all!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

No, some girls start at 12 to 13, as long as you have your period it is not too early!. Of course it is nice to not be on it for too long cause the longer you are on it, the harder it is to get pregnant when you are ready and there can be an increased risk of breast cancer, but 18 is not too young at all!.

No not to young at all!. Side affects really depends on the person!. Some people get some side affects then also some people don't get side affects at all!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

18 is not too young!. 16 yr olds take the bill!. It can cause problems with growth, but you are already grown!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I wouldn't think so, the pill is formulated for people around this age!. I think there are more side effects when you are older, like over 30!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
