Re: Questions about the pill (+ regulating my period) -

1. Will the pill help? Will it make me gain weight? Are there any negative side effects I should consider?
|
Yeah, it should help. Just make sure to explain your problem, so your doctor knows. As for side effects, it really varies from brand to brand, but be sure to ask.

2. Should I approach my mom or wait until October when I can drive myself to Planned Parenthood privately?
|
It's really up to you. If you feel like you can wait, then go ahead, but if it's bothering you so much that you want to get something for it now, then ask.

3. If I should approach my mom, how? I don't want an awkward conversation. I wish she would just see me as an adult and I don't feel I can talk to her about anything like this. :/

Just explain to her that your periods are very irregular and extremely heavy, and you don't want to have to deal with it anymore because it's embarrassing and painful. Make sure to stay calm while you talk to her.
