Teenager's bodies are not fully formed. Birth Control was designed for a fully formed woman. Period. Birth Control can cause really bad side effects, and some teenagers have a bad reaction to it because of their age. Try passing out, repeatedly.

None. It just stops them getting pregnant which can only be a good thing. Birth Control does not have any long term effects on fertility or health no mater what its religious opponents say and is surely better than teenagers getting pregnant with unwanted babies.

It always amazes me that people are all up in arms over things like pesticides and going organic---and yet young girls still want to put chemicals into her body that will screw up her natural cycles?
Dangers include
• Increased risk of blood clotting, heart attack and stroke
• Migraines and headaches
• Gall bladder disease
• Increased blood pressure
• Weight gain
• Mood changes
• Acne and/or oily skin
• Nausea/Vomiting (especially at the beginning)
• Nausea
• Irregular bleeding or spotting
• Benign liver tumors
• Breast tenderness
• Yeast overgrowth and infection
Of course none of tha addresses the emotional toll that comes along with sex at a young age. Not to mention that the earlier a girl engages in sexual intercourse the higher her chances of cervical cancer are as well as HPV....

Well, I used the birth control patch when I met my fiance. 4 months after being on it, I got pregnant. I guess the only down fall is that it doesn't always work.

It depends on what its used for. Sometimes it is used to regulate periods. Then its a good thing. But if its just for freedom to have sex and no babies then I don't think its so great for teens.

Keeps them from having an unwanted baby.

Can make sex seem safer, and therefore make them more likely to engage in it.
Also, can lead to not using condoms (because they won't get pregnant), which will lead to STD's.
I understand needing ideas, but try to do your homework yourself.
