On The Pill?

Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
Hey... I've been having very irregular periods, and rather painful ones, and it has been suggested by my form tutor and others that I think about going on the pill.

I have never considered using the pill, as I'm sexually inactive lol.
There's also the case that we've had cervical cancer in the family, so I don't know if I want to be 'tempting fate' or anything.
Weight is also an issue - I don't want to put weight on, but have heard that some pills do make you put weight on..

Any advice would be great...

    Go to your GP and discuss your period problems. They will be able to suggest what is suitable for you, be it the pill or an alternative.
