IN REPLY TO: What's the best birth control for a teen girl?
AUTHOR: MomofTwoTeens
First off, I'd like to congratulate you and your daughter in having an open enough relationship that you could figure this out together. I wish I'd had that with my mom. I would recommend that you have your daughter see a gyn. and discuss the subject between the three of you. However, on a personal note, I started taking the pill at the age of 16 when I became sexually active and never had problems with it. I was on it for 6 yrs. before stopping it and a month after stopping my husband & I found out I was preg. So I haven't had any adverse reactions. Only a positive exp. It regulated my period, cleared up my acne and kept me from getting preg. However, if your daughter is going to be sexually active with more than one person, she will want to use condoms also as to avoid any std's. Good luck.
