BIRTH CONTROL PREVENTS PREGNANCIES FROM OCCURING.
IF U HAVENT HAD UR PERIOD GO TO THE DOCTORS AND FIND OUT WHAT IS GOING ON, BECAUSE IT CAN BE DUE TO PROBLEMS WITH YOUR OVARIES.
THERE IS A MEDICAL PROBLEM KNOWN AS POLYCYSTIC OVARIAN SYNDROME WHICH CAN CAUSE IRREGULAR PERIODS.
WITH THIS PROBLEM YOUR BODY IS NOT RELEASING ENOUGH HORMONES TO RELEASE THE EGG. THEN NOT HAVING ANYWHERE TO GO, THE EGG STAYS IN THE OVARIES, BECOMES OLD AND EVENTUALLY TURNS INTO A LITTLE CYST. BECAUSE NO EGG IS RELEASED, YOU DO NOT GET YOUR PERIOD.
EACH MONTH YOU DONT GET IT...ITS ANOTHER EGG THAT IS STUCK IN YOUR OVARIES.
EVENTUALLY THIS CAN LEAD TO MANY MEDICAL PROBLEMS INCLUDING OVARIAN CANCER.
SO I SUGGEST THAT YOU GET YOURSELF CHECKED SO YOU CAN GET THE PROPER MEDICAL ATTENTION THAT YOU NEED.

No.
Please talk with your doctor so that you can get your facts straight. And if you are the one with irregular periods, and want to get pregnant, you'll need to talk with your doctor no matter what.

No, often doctor's will give the pill in these cases to get women regular. Talk to your mother, doctor or sex educator so you know about your body.
