hiya
id managed to avoid going on the pill until i was 29, i did not agree with playing around with hormones. when i fell pregnant with baby gaga whos nearly 2 the midwife was keen to see me take some sort of contraceptive, the pill being the only one which suited me. so ive been taking yasmin which is a combined pill high in oestrogen.
the positives have been..
not falling pregnant.
having some control over your menstral cycle.
some types of pill have it has been claimed protected woman from cervical cancer.
i in all honesty have gave up as i feel the pill has not suited me. and im back to square one.!
good luck, radio
feelinlost, going on the pill is a big decision to make.

among other things, they help regulate periods and importantly stop you getting pregnant.

if your reason for considering going on the pill is for sexual reasons, please think carefully about your decisions to have sex and remember that it is still important to use condoms. i know i sound like i'm harping on but unwanted pregnancies/babies and STD's are sad and totally preventative.

perhaps its worth you popping down to speak to your local nurse and they will give you information/advice and be totally non-judgemental.

if your in your teens i would advise against taking advice from your peers as they probably know not much more than you.

good luck

For me:
Lighter periods
Less PMT!
Knowing exactly when it's going to come
The ablility to run more than one packet together to avoid a period
Contraception
