How old are you!? If you're under 17 or 18, don't bother!. Give your body time to finish maturing before messing with your cycles!.
I took some generic BC pill brand (don't remember the name of it anymore) and just discarded the sugar pills and took the active ones right on through!.
Yes, birth control will make you gain weight, in the vast majority of cases!. Don't get the shot - it affects a lot of women badly, and my doctor warned me off of it because it leeches the calcium from your bones!. A friend of mine liked the patch a lot, but I have no personal experience with it!. Also, a hormone-treated IUD (the Mirena) can lessen or get rid of periods altogether!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

by the way, ****** control does not necessarily stop periods!. the coil doesnt, the pill/shot can do, but its not for definite!.
the pill is likley to make you gain weight - your hormones go all crazy!. you may still have periods but are likely to change from the way you are used to them - may get heavier , may get shirter/lighter!. it all varies from each woman!.
basically,you should try different things out and see what works for you!
good luckWww@Answer-Health@Com
