Birth control at 16yo?

nuelle

Hey!! Im super curious about birth control especially at the age of 16(my mom does support me if I start taking birth control). I am sexually active but I heard birth control doesn’t always work for sex? It’s not all about the sex but I just feel like it would be easier than to continue having my period. Some of my girlfriends at my age use birth control and they said I should start taking them. I also heard a lot about the empty pills? In case you didn’t take the birth control? I have no clue but please let me know!
