moiselles Posted May 26, 2005 Share Posted May 26, 2005 Since many of us are discussing the topic of The Pill and the Depo shot in the "That Time Of The Month" thread, I thought it would be best that birth control got it's own thread.

moiselles Posted May 27, 2005 Author Share Posted May 27, 2005 I get my birth control pills for $15. The pharmacy gave me the same drug, just a different name so it's cheaper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moiselles Posted May 27, 2005 Author Share Posted May 27, 2005 Yeah, they used to be $30 when I first got them. But they've been $15 for at least two years now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sweetpea Posted May 27, 2005 Share Posted May 27, 2005 I wish mine would go down, but their doctors prescription so I think they are going to be that high for a while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Acro Posted May 27, 2005 Share Posted May 27, 2005 Do you know the implants, that comes under your skin? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheyda Posted May 27, 2005 Share Posted May 27, 2005 In Britain you get the birth control pill for free until you're 18, but if you go into full-time education at sixth form college and on to university, you still get it for free. So, I won't be paying for it for another two years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sweetpea Posted May 27, 2005 Share Posted May 27, 2005 Do you know the implants, that comes under your skin?<{POST_SNAPBACK}>Yeah I know about it, But I wouldn't want anything like that implanted inside of my arm. I'm happy with the patch and the pill. Lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aeneas Posted May 27, 2005 Share Posted May 27, 2005 i'd be afraid i'd do the pill wrong, like take it at the wrong time, and end up pregnant...so that scares me about the pill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Acro Posted May 27, 2005 Share Posted May 27, 2005 I've never heard of this implant thing. It sounds scary. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> It`s very small and very save. And it works for about 2 years. If I were a woman, I woul talk with my doc about this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been on the pill for three years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beginning of the week so says the packet. and if you forget to take it, you have to double up take the one you missed plus the next day.

moiselles Posted May 28, 2005 Author Share Posted May 28, 2005 Yeah, the pills are pretty easy to take. Just have to remember to take them on time. I take mine before I go to bed. But I think most people take them first thing in the morning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
