Answers:
Birth control helps TONS with cramps!. I dont know what i would do without it! :] it also helps with acne!. There are some risks though!. They can tell you about those at the clinic!. Just dont smoke or drink while you're on them!. When you're on birth control you have a higher risk for getting cancer!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

You break out because there's is a sudden depletion of estrogen in your body!. And estrogen is known to help regulate oil secretions in the body!. W/o estrogen glands get a little wonky and that can increase severity of break outs!.

What BC can do is help control the level of hormones in your body, keeping your body from experiencing sudden drops in reproductive hormones which may keep your face clearer!.
BC can also help alleviate severe cramping!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Yes, birth control pills will help massively with the cramps!. If your mother is supportive, then go talk with the doctor and have him/her explain the risks and benefits!.

There is an increased risk of breast cancer, and a reduced risk of cervical cancer associated with hormonal birth control!. Other risks include DVT (especially if you smoke) and assorted other less serious things!. The doctor will talk you through the side effects!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

it can help, there are many diffrrent options so i would try to get as much material on the different types of birth control as possible, you can go to planned parenthoods website, or get some material from your school nurse!. when i was younger i used to throw up with my cramps and eventually i had to get prescrition pain medicine, naproxen and darvocet!. the naproxen works really well for me, after i take it its like i'm not even on my period!. i've taken birth control and it can help shorten and lighten periods!. i would not recommend taking the birth control shots tho!. there is a pill that keeps you from having your period for 3 mos, although you may have some breaktrhough bleeding in between!. i think there is even a pill that keeps you from having your period for a year!. also there are pills designed to help with the pms symptoms, and not just the period itself!. howeve birth contro is not a magic pill and may not help with the cramps as much as the first answerer implies!. it is "medicine" and will react differently for everyone!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

there are a few side effects to birth control!. but not all girls get these side effects or all of them!. i would suggest Yaz it is specifially formulated to ease cramps and facial blemishes!.

ive been on birth control for 2yrs and i just found a birth control that i dont like and it gives me heaches!. everywomans body is different so the only way to know is to find out for urself!. give it a go the worst that could happen is headaches bloating and mood swings lol!.

oh i didnt have cramps till i started taking birth control!. this might have the exact opposite effect on you than it did for me!. best of luck im sure it will be ok!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

yes, the pill really does help women with breakouts and cramps!. but if you don't want to take it, then don't!. i can understand you not wanting to pump chemicals into your body if you don't have to!. but if other treatments don't help, then i would consider taking the pill if the cramps and acne interfere with you living a full life for a generous portion of the month!.

other things you can try for cramps: a good diet, exercise, masturbating the cramps away (seriously!), pain relievers, a head pad or patch, caffiene

the acne you must combat all month long to have any real results during your cycle!. wash and moisturize day and night with something appropriate for your face and skin type!. change your pillowcase at least once a week!. and try good acne products!. due to my terrible menstrual breakouts (which left me with about one almost zit-free week per month), i became a very happy proactiv customer!. now i get only a couple very small pimples that quickly disappear!.

good luck!Www@Answer-Health@Com

Yes!. The pill helps with bad cramps, and you will have lighter periods!. I was started on bc when I was your age to regulate my period!. So don't worry!. Have your doctor put you on a low dose pill!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
