I want to go on birth control pills...?!
Question:
I want to go on birth control pills...?
...just to make my periods more regular. I am 15. Except I really really really don't want to go to the gynoclogist (spelling?). What is there to do?
Answers:
I am 15 as well and in the exact same position as you are. I get horrible cramps among other symptoms and I'm really irregular. I've only been having my period for about six months now. I saw my pediatrician about a month ago and she was very understanding and said she would have no problem with prescribing a low dose birth control pill, but that I should wait until August since I haven't been cycling for too long yet. I suggest seeing your family doctor and explaining your reasons for wanting the pill and how much your irregular periods bother you. Good luck!
