How can i talk my mom into putting me on birth control?

Question

i dont want to flat out ask her, because she'll probably start trusting me less, and letting me do less than i already do. [which is pretty much nothing] i dont plan on having s*x right away, i'm still a virgin, i just want to be on it just in case, ya know? so please help. :] thankss

Answer 1

I was put on birth control when I was 16 not because I was having s*x but to help regulate my periods and to help with cramps. I used to get really sick during my period and would have to miss school. So my Dr. recommend I go on BC to help this and it really helped me. My periods were very regular and I didn't get sick. So ask it that way. Good luck!!

Answer 2

You know, I'm sure your mom would be more upset if you came up to her one day and told her she was going to be an early grandmother.

You also have to understand, a parent does not want to think about their baby having s*x, so yes, it will upset her more than likely.

But tell her, in\case the time comes, you want to be prepared, you're not being irresponsible, you're being responsible.

Answer 3

Well what my mom simply told me: "You can either get on the Pill or the shot, its your choice." Talk to your mom about the subject. I'm 16 and we can talk freely about it. Just be like, I don't wanna make the mistake of getting pregnant. Also, if you didnt know, certain birth control pills help with your menstrual cramps, some mild acne, and it lightens your period. I started my first pack of "Yaz" last Sunday and it works fine.  

Tell her about the other things birth control can do to you....!

Answer 4

If you really don't plan on having s*x anytime soon, I would not go on birth control.  Why mess with your hormones if  you don't have to. (You don't say how old you are, but if you're a young teen your body is still growing and changing, and taking the pill can cause problems.)

If/when you decide you are ready for s*x, be sure that the boy uses a condom (used correctly and carefull they are about as reliable as the pill ... and you'd want to be using one anyway), and then decide if you want to use pills as well.  (At which point you can go down to your local Planned Parenthood clinic and get them yourself.)

Answer 5

Tell her your period is totally irregular and that you have so many embaressing moments at school.  

Tell her you heard that the pill allows you to know exactly when and how many days you'll be menstrating.

It worked  fior my sis---no questions asked.

Answer 6

You must use a condom every time, no excuses. The pill does not prevent STD's, which are numerous and dangerous.

Pippin is right, you don't want to take hormones that you don't need.

Wait to have s*x for as long as you can, you will be glad you did. And once you do, a condom, EVERY time, your health and even your life will be at risk, respect yourself enough to demand that you be protected.

Answer 7

Tell her just that..honesty is the best way and it will be great if you have a good line of communicate.  If you feel you can't do this and need to be protected against pregnancy, you could go to a family planning or something similar to get the pill for free without your mom knowing.  Schools will usually let you leave school without your parents knowing too.

It's best to be open with your mom but if you feel you can not it is better then an unwanted pregnancy.

Answer 8

Tell her that you are having unprotected s*x and want to have a baby, and hate condoms.  She will wise up and get you some.

Answer 9

If you really don't want to ask your mom I'm pretty sure you can go to your local health department and get BC or condoms. But if you want your mom to know just atlk to her and explain your situation.

Answer 10

You could tell her that you are having irregular periods and have been told it will help settle them down but really you need to be thinking about using condoms when it comes to having s*x. The pill only protects against pregnancy, it won't give any protection from STD's, it would be better to use both methods but at very least make sure your partner wears a condom.

Answer 11

Just pretend like your periods are irregular. The birth control pills would be necessary to regulate your cycle. That's what my doctor told my mom when I was younger although I was not active at the moment. Also, if you have plans to be sexually active, then please remember that the pills does not protect  you against STDs and AIDS. ALWAYS use a condom as well even if the guy objects you have to be firm. Please make sure you protect yourself by fully understanding the consequences of your actions. Its best to wait until you are older when you understand relationships more. You will be able to make wiser decisions. You will also understand a little bit better how everything works. If a guy really and truly likes you then he will wait as long as possible.
