finding the perfect BC?

Question

I'm in highschool and I really need a good form of bc to fall back on. We have been using condoms but it's not the best form but it is a good back up. I'm looking for something that I can keep a secret from my parents but also veryconvinient. Any options?

Answer

The depo shot. You get the shot every three months. I loved it!

Answer

It's very rare that a doctor would insert an IUD or Implant in a teenager. Usually they do those on married woman or if they have been in a long term relationship and woman who have had kids. My suggestion is to maybe get the Depo Shot . It's effective, but look up pros and cons.

Answer

The ring is great!

Answer

I would look up the types of birth control here and figure out which one would work best for you. I wouldn't recommend anything that would need to be inserted vaginally or that would require a surgical procedure (IUD, NuvaRing). 
 The shot or patch seem like the best options for you.

Answer

Maybe look into the arm implant or an iud. That way it's not visible to your parents. They're the most effective forms of birth control besides abstinence and sterilization. Just expect you may have irregular bleeding. Those are your best options if you don't want your parents finding extra pill packs, patches or vaginal ring packs anywhere.

Answer

I've heard of teenagers getting the implant
