well when u say protection, im guessing u mean condoms.
maybe u could suggest to her going on the pill?? it doesnt protect u against STIs but at least she'll be safe from getting pregnant!
being on the pill is good because things happen sometimes and you might not always be prepared.
and about your boyfriend, thats so not right. not all guys r like that, but yeh there r some.
i was going to make an advice section ! protection is very important when it comes to intercourse especially if you dont plan on having a baby, it can happen to the best of us.
When you use the pill make sure you consult your doctor and ask him / her advice before you use it as it may complicate your health, and also the biggest point IT DOESNT WORK STAIGHT AWAY.... bet you thought if you drink it, half an hour later you'd be protected ? wrong the pill takes around 14 days of constant drinking before you are safe i only recently found this out ... its always best to read the instructions too before rather than rushing into things.
Actually, it takes a full menstrual cycle (about a month) for the pill to be at full effectiveness. (99% effective if used properly).
But, as was mentioned before, it does not protect against sexually transmitted diseases, so if you have only one partner and they have been tested, it's fine. But you should check or use a condom.
And about the boyfriend thing, that's not true. If you find a decent guy who has other things on his mind then sex, he won't pressure you. I have been dating my boyfriend for over two years (I'm 17) and he has never even brought up the topic. Needless to say I'm still a virgin.
But if you can find a guy who has his priorities right (Meaning school first, sex second) you will probably find they make the best boyfriends, as you can develop a strong relationship with them as friends and lovers before having sex.
um something bout wat ash said... drink it?? thats really strange becos in australia its a tablet and u swallow it.
and also with taking the pill you have to make sure u have one everyday at the same time or its not as effective. but my doctor assured me thats its ok if u forget to take it, just try not to do it all the time and take it as soon as u remeber.
oh and another great thing about the pill is u can skip your period as often as you like (the doctor also assured me of that) . but it doesnt work with every kind of pill because there are alot of different types depending on which one suits you best.
It isn't healthy to use birth control pills to skip your period unless it is specifically made for that. Pills such as Seasora (I think that's how it's spelled) Reduce your period to once per season. Other pills, if used to stop your peiod may cause infertility and, once you stop taking the pills, incredible mood swings. (My friend went through it)
Oral contraceptives are most often taken as the pill. (I have never heard of it being drunk before) But other (non oral) forms are available such as injections which can be taken annually or patches which are changed weekly.

Okay yes the pill is very helpful in keeping the babies away . As for me I have had to learn the hard way. The pill ONLY portects against unwanted pregnancies . You will ONLY be safe against STIs and other infections HPV,HIV,AIDS if you use a latex condom or barrier. Please do use condoms as they later on save lives. Not just yours but your partners too! If you dont care about your health think about how much you may love your partner and protect their life!!
i dont realy use protection even though everyone says i am to young do it anyways and my sex partner doesn't realy care if we do but as of like a month ago we started b/c he thought i was pregnant so yeah it is a good idea
My ex was paranoid...every time we had sex....(sorry for being a little graphic...) Even WITH protection and him cuming in my mouth (sorry again) He would be absolutely paranoid every time and think that i was pregnant!@!@!@!@!@!@!
Use protection...not only does is prevent pregnancy but it also stops passing STIs

depends which pill you're on. i asked the doctor when i started taking mine and that one was effective immediately, as most are. there are only one or two uncommon types which are not immediately effective.
just thought id put that out there in case anyone read that and panicked.
Well needless to say, your friend is silly! You should try to really talk to her though thats some serious shit. I think most dudes at this age are hella imature and all they try to do is hit because they want to feel grown.
most pills are effective after 7 days, if taken on the third day of your period.
There are so many different types of contraception though, so if like me you are really forgetful you can try the implant, which is a small tube like thing that gets put just under your skin in your arm and releases hormones all by itself, the clever little thing.
Or the coil which basically goes up inside of you and stops anything getting past!
it also effects the lining of the womb whilst its in there, so it wont 'accept' an egg.
Or of course there are diaphragm's (which arent particularly pleasent) and condoms.
It's so easy to get hold of contraception that it's just lazy and childish to not use any.
Double posting is against the rules.
