Withdrawl is
not an effective form of
birth control, and you are very lucky you
haven't gotten pregnant yet! Get some
condoms for now, while you wait through
the process to get pills!
No, there are no over the counter birth
control pills, because they do change
something drastic about the way your body
functions; and important function, so it
is important that they are carefully
controlled and remian prescriptions!
However, depending on your age, they can
be easier to aquire. Planned parenthood
offers pills for free to all students,
college and highschool. If you are under
18 or not sexually active, then they don't
even require a pap-smear to get you
started
even if they require a pap-smear, it is
not a scary expereince! It doesn't take
long at all, and then sometimes the clinic
will give you pills as you walk out;
others make you take a prescription to a
pharmacy. The major point of the first
pap smear is to make sure there's nothing
immediately visibly wrong, and to verify
you aren't already pregnant.
Next, there are a lot of pills out on the
market, but the most common one to start
with is ortho-tricyclen or ortho-tricycle-
lo. They are commonly called just ortho
and ortho-lo, and most women can take
either kind with few or no side effects,
and many many benefits!
