Teen birth control

What birth control has been suggested for your teen. I'm 100% sure my 14yo is active. Honestly, trying to prevent that is a losing battle. So birth control it is.

I was thinking the rod. I'm not a fan of it, but being a teen I know she will miss pills.

I would make sure you research this well. Start with Dr Libby Weaver!

I would 100% be sitting down with my teen and talking with her and a GP. Making sure the conversation is clear that birth control may help not have a baby it will not help not spread sexually transmitted diseases.

I took the pill as a teen for severe bleeding
And another time to stop a period
I was just told to take it
Was never explained the hormonal problems that I got after taking it
Inserting copper is also not great with too much copper in the body
Or hormonal ones are like the hormonal pill for f ing up your body
Honestly it’s a hard one
But condones is what she sounds like she is using
But she may choose one of the options AFTER the consequences are clearly understood
Maybe a week or two with one of those babies that cries a lot to understand becoming sexually could become
Kids brains are not matured to forward think this shit
