I am so impressed that you are responsible enough to get on the pill. It is definitely best to ask them and just be honest about it.
I would talk to one of them first (which ever one you feel more able to talk to about this) and tell them you are really thinking about it and not rushing into it. You are ready and want to be prepared. If you have an aunt, older sister, or someone else in your family that you can get help from you may ask them what they suggest since they know your parents and may have more personal suggestions. I hope they appreciate your honesty and maturity.
If for some reason they do not...you can get on the pill w/out your parents permission at planned parenthood or your doctor (the hard part may be paying for it if you have to get a prescription).
It is always best to get on the pill but make sure you use a condom too! The pill can't protect you from STD's and even if you are sure neither one of you have anything, it is always best to have 2 lines of protection against pregnancy and 1 for STD's.
Good Luck, and be really sure you have chosen the right person and the right time.

You could say you're having really irregular and heavy periods and ask your mum if there's anything that the doctor could do to help. If she doesn't suggest contraceptive pill, say that you know someone that had really bad periods and went on the pill and it sorted her right out. My ex used to have real bad periods, but then went on the three month contraceptive injection, and her periods completly stopped, so this would be a good way of getting your parents support for contraception rather than just coming out and saying 'mum, I want to get nailed!'.
Obviously, you should still use condoms if you are intent in having sex with or without using contraceptive pill, and the legal age for sexual intercourse (in Uk) is 16.......

Well, I told my mom that me and my boyfriend at the time had talked about me going on the pill. We went to Planned Parenthood together (I made the appointment and drove us there), and she sat in the waiting room with me.
Better safe than sorry. You can always go to Planned Parenthood w/out your parents, but it's best to talk to someone about these things. You don't know everything, and niether does your mother. I would talk to her, AND make an appointment if she's not willing to take you to a gyn. and get your pills. Be responsible. If you're not old enough to drive, you shouldn't even be asking this question.

I'm not sure of your age but i think you are showing a great deal of responsibility here and as hard as it is for your parents to except that your growing up explain to them that going on the pill doesn't mean that you are going to run out and starting sleeping around but in fact you are just reaching an age where you want to be careful not to end up in a situation that lands you in hot water.

The best way if you want to dring your parents in to it, is just tell them, they may get mad to start with but they will respect you for it in the long run.
But on the other hand what you talk to your doctor is keeped between the 2 of you.
good luck.

Just come right out and tell them ! Don't " sugar coat it " cause, they certainly are not ready on becoming grandparents ! You'd be doing yourself & them a favor. This is not an easy task but, you need to address the situation as quickly as possibile !

i'd be like this:
Hey, mom and dad, come here a minute... i need to talk.
I was just wondering... do you want grandchildren? Oh, you do?
how about right now? No, you don't?
then i suggest you get me on the pill or i'm going to mess around here and throw my life away.
lol! better not talk to the dad, just the mom. the dad's liable to smack your face. don't tell him and make a deal with mom behind his back.

Just tell them that you wanna go on the pill, they will appreciate your maturity and respect you for it.

well.... i did this thing 5 months ago... but i had a problem with my period and this problem came from having sex after long time without it... so i went to my mum told her about my period problem... and i then i went to the doctor by myself.. he recommended the pill for me to adjust my period and as a contraceptive...
I went back home.. I told my mum that i need pills she went and bought them for me!!! notice that i did not need to tell my mum about the sex stuff...
