How can I ask my mom about birth control?

=] Asked by kaileyxox45 over 2 years ago, 13 answers.

Well, im 13 and really want to go on birth control. But im guessing I will have to ask my mom. I've had this boyfriend for about a year and I really love him, and I repsect my body and want to wait until im much older for sex, but I just want to be safe because you never really know. Do you think if I say to my mom " I want to go on birth control to regulate my periods" shell by it? She knows about my boyfriend, and about my crazy period schedule. I honestly have no idea how she'll react. Im so nervous. Any advice???please help!

Send this to a friend

She'll know your real motive behind it. Mom's know that game

If you really want to go on birth control you can take the "Would you rather me have sex without BC?" approach. But she might react bad to that too. Point is, you're too young for sex and what mom says - goes.

I think that if you know what you want you are going to do it one way or another, my true advice comes in the fact that you said you wanted to wait (which is awesome! Keep waiting until it's right wait until you are older!) but "just in case" it's very very good that you take this approach...so, a few options here...
You could tell your mom that you want it to regulate your period...mom can say 1 of 3 things; yes, no, or no because it will even out evetually as you go through puberty, probably the third.
Ok, let's say mom says yes. So you know what to expect I am going to tell you right now....They're going to take you into a doctor who is going to make you get undressed and put this metal thig in you that looks like a duck bill, this will break your hymen which is going to bleed, they will then put a thing in you that looks like a mascara brush to swab your cervix, then write you a prescription. They do this because they need to know your estrogen levels and make sure everything is ok with your reproductive system first.
Let's say mom says no. You have a few options, you could go to planned parenthood where they are going to do the same thing and will most likely write you a prescription, unfortunately, your insurance doesn't cover this and you will have to pay for it yourself, but...your mom won't know. Or you could jsut hold off like you want to and not let any "just in case" moments happen, or keep some condoms around (which you can get for free from planned parenthood or possibly your school) just in case any "just in case" moments happen.
Any way you chose just be careful and remember that sex just to have sex is just having sex but sex that waits for true love and waits for the real emotional growth is love making and even in all of its imperfections is the perfect sex. Don't sweat it but wait to make sure anyway ok? Don't be in a hurry to grow up, and message me if you have any more questions.

ok I was in the same situation you were last June. I was never completely regular, but after me and my boyfriend started having sex, it got way worse. I finally worked up the guts and told my mother that I wanted birth control because I was very irregular. And I wasn't lying one bit either! It was seriousely annoying. Thats the main reason I wanted it, so thats what I told her. Its now also a backup for me and the same guy I've been with since before that.
You are right, anything can happen. You can say nothin is ever going to happen to me, and then it does. I know exactly how you feel and I was 15 when this whole shabang started happenin.
My advice, ask her for it because you are irregular (you said you're mom knew you are). And then, if something does happen with you and your boyfriend, you also have a backup. And if she asks if somethin else is going on, you can honestly tell her that nothing is happening until something really is. My mom stayed off my back about it quite a bit, so maybe yours will do the same.

The best thing to do is sit down with your mom and simply ask her if it would be okay for you to go on birth control. That the main reason you want it is to regulate your periods. You are much too young to be having sex and I am proud of you for wanting to wait until you're older. When you do ask your mom reassure her that you are going to wait to have sex if that is her main concern for you, and that you simply want it for your periods.

Your not too young to have a boyfriend but you are too young to have sex or to even be thinking about it. I know to many of my friends got preg at that age on accident and purpose some even had to have abortions they all regreted it but getting birth control is a safe way. If you do get it still always use a condom if you do have sex.

Im going on 16 and want it for the period reasons and other reasons but I dont have a boyfriend yet you never know what your going to do with a guy. I havent asked my mom and I dont plan on it even though I really want to I can talk to her about stuff I do with a guy and she knows I've did everything but sex so I don't know

Go to your local health department? You don't have to tell your parents a thing ..

I was 15 whenever I asked my mom if I could get put on birth control, & she didn't object .. your mom should be glad you came to her to talk about it, & tell her that. Tell her you could've just went to someone else, someone who wasn't even an adult.

Just be honest .. if you lie, you'll only dig yourself a deeper hole.
