Hi everyone! I would like everyone's opinion on different types of birth control. I was on the pill when I was 16 and didn't have any problems. I am 20 now and I'm thinking about getting back on birth control cause my cramps are so bad and I don't want any babies right now. I thought about the getting the shot but I don't know much about it or the side effects. Does it take your period away? If so how do you know if you're pregnant or not. Is it better to just be on the pill? What are your thoughts on the different types of birth control!!?
