Is the pill the best form of birth control?

Question

I want to know why it is and why it isn't,I'm debating if I should get on it or not. I'm 17 years old and in a long term relationship,we are committed and if pregnancy happened we would deal with it and raise our child but I really don't want to ruin my chances of children in the future. 3 months ago my cycle went from 29 days to 35 days and I don't know why. I want to regulate it but I don't know if I should get on birth control from all those bad stories. ADVICE PLEASE!!

Answer

I was previously on Trinessa for the last two years, I had no side affects and no unplanned pregnancy while taking it. I have recently got off the pill (Now TTC w hubby) and only experienced 3 days of spotting. I loved the pill and have nothing negative to say about it! But keep in mind everything might be a little different with everyone. :)

Answer

There is no uniformly best form of birth control - that's precisely why there are so many different options out there. Your best bet is to consider all of them and discuss your options with your doctor so you both can narrow it down to what would most likely be best for *you*. Every woman is different and will therefore react differently to all bc types.

Answer

The best form is to not have sex at all. Lol obviously! but I think it depends on the person. There are so many different types out there and you have to see what works for you. For me; Yaz gave me a migraines, the NuvaRing was convenient but I gained weight and once off it, my cycles were jacked up. There are also the Implanon and an explain which is inserted in your arm and you don't have to worry about taking a pill each day. Talk to your doc and see what fits your lifestyle best.

Answer

I put 'no' because you asked whether the pill is 'the best' form of BC. The pill is certainly very effective at preventing pregnancy but so are a number of other forms as well, depending on what you want. For regulating cycles, I found the pill to be right for me.

Answer

It depends on your body. Each form has about the same success rate. For me, personally, the pill wasn't the best because of the side effects I experienced. I'm now trying the NuvaRing.
