don't think so, but she should definitely talk to her GP about it
more than likely she just heard some bullshit rumour
[editline]5th January 2012[/editline]
also no more dealing with condoms <:D[/QUOTE]
Hmm well she was prescribed them by her GP in the first place.
And maybe, there is the STI thing as well.. the fact that something like 70% of women with STIs show no symptoms..

you should probably discuss this with her, but honestly I wouldn't worry too much about it yourself, especially since you said she's only 16 anyway (???)
it's good to be cautious, but like... well, it depends how much you trust her I suppose.
[editline]5th January 2012[/editline]
I seriously doubt she has an STI, but that's just my gut feeling and not very scientific
She is 17 in less than a month. She has said she has never had sex without a condom before and I believe her and trust her 100% to be honest.
I was just saying even with the pill we'd probably still use it, especially with the fact her mother would go apeshit if she found out we were having sex (and obviously if something did happen she would probably find out), and at our age I just think its better safe than sorry.

The pill will just be a reasurance incase the condom ever breaks.

as long as she's responsible and takes the pill every day and is honest when she misses a day, you really dont need to use the condom. if she misses a day, then you can just use condoms for the next week or whatever, but besides that it's just going to cost you a lot of money.

okay well at this point I'd have just said go for it, and I don't really see how the absence of condoms would make it easier for her mother to ascertain that "omg my daughter is haveing fuck", but whatever
also the pill is by far the most effective contraceptive available if she doesn't forget them, something like greater than 99% effective, so make of that what you will
[editline]5th January 2012[/editline]
and yeah, as l_n says, condoms are actually kind of expensive these days
tbh the pill is 100% effective and the .01% they leave for uncertainty is so they can't get sued when somebody uses it wrongly and thinks it's the company's fault

She definitely would, of course its in her best interest to be honest and she tells me everything anyway. And we're not going to be racking up a massive condom bill, we hardly have any chance to do anything anyway. Literally once a fortnight if we are lucky, a month or more if we're not.

fairly certain it's roughly the same for copper IUDs too
[editline]5th January 2012[/editline]
yeah
[quote]When using the copper IUD, about 6 out of 1,000 women become pregnant in the first year. 2
Most pregnancies that occur with IUD use happen because the IUD is pushed out of (expelled from) the uterus unnoticed. IUDs are most likely to come out in the first few months of IUD use, after being inserted just after childbirth, or in women who have not had a baby.[/quote]

well in that case, do whatever. not sure if you'd be staying at her place and having sex or her staying at yours, but ive done both and it's kind of a weird thing disposing of condoms at your girlfriend's. just make sure the toilet flushes, stand there and watch that shit. we never got caught, which surprises me because goddamn sometimes we'd forget a condom wrapper on her nightstand or even the freaking living room coffee table and only notice after her mom had walked through the room ten times.
We would never be allowed at hers on our own, her mother is very strict about her house, we are not allowed to stay up in her room or anything, but she is at mine...?
Well anyway, I'm definitely not flushing again, took 3 attempts last time even wrapped in tissue and without any air in at all, as it got stuck in the U bend and the toilet almost over flowed. I'll just stick it in tissue and in the big dustbin outside. And with foils, we almost got caught on that first time, left it on the floor, mum came in to wake me up in the morning, luckily my floor is a mess anyway...
you really shouldn't flush condoms anyway
[QUOTE=Mort and Charon;34065265]If anyone cares/remembers, it looks like my girlfriends is going back on the pill after all the issues she's had after coming off it. She said its not worth passing out and feeling sick to her stomach for 2 days every month.
The thing is, she's heard that staying on it too long causes fertility problems, does anyone know of anything on the subject? Most websites say there is no link between them anyway.

I don't see how you could actually want or call it a relationship without the physical contact and interaction anyway.[/QUOTE]
There are two kinds of pills. The Birth Control Pill and the one you use in emergencies in case both of you mess up. The first one is pretty normal and healthy. It acually helps women with their menstrual cycles. The other one is a very strong hormonal discharge and if taken more than 3 times in a lifetime, the risk of fertility problems does rise.
As for the STD's. Go make a test one month after your last sexual act. It's easy. All it takes is a blood sample and (I think) urine and sperm too. It kinda depends. Last time I did the test at my clinic they only sampled my blood for any STD. Luckily I didn't have one and both me and my girlfriend at the tame were relieved.

he knows the difference and it's clear he's talking about the pill, not plan B. and plan B won't fuck you up if you take it just 3 times in your life, christ, that'd be awful. it only starts causing serious problems if you take it more than a few times per month.

what the fuck if taken more then 3 times in a lifetime?
are you serious lol, planned parenthood gave my girlfriend almost 50 of them and told her to take as many as she needed but not to rely on them and that she shouldn't more then three times a month haha

The whole reason I said she was taking it was because of her bad menstrual cycle.
Then there has been some missunderstanding. Here we call "the pill" the one you use to control menstrual cycles and prevent pregnancy during the time a girl's taking it. The other pill I mentioned was what we call here "The next day's pill". that one's for taking when insemination occurs.
So what are you talking about when you refer to "the pill", then? :v:
The 1st option, dude

I'm referring to pills like Plan B and stuff, not the actual birth control pill.
I've been refering to the contraceptive pill that also has the effect of reducing PMS and period pain.

They're both progesterone (well an analogue but same different) pills
the only difference is in how much of the hormone is there
that's the reason why catholics don't like birth control pills (because sometimes an egg might be fertilized while taking the daily pill, but fails to implant like the 'morning after' pill)
[editline]7th January 2012[/editline]
I think the first generation stuff [I]might[/I] have had [I]some[/I] effect on fertility, but the latest ones are fine with even less side effects than before
I thought the contraceptive pill (not morning after) stopped the release of eggs anyway?

It does most of the time, but that's not 100%
groan. contraception is such a dire topic
But unwanted babies and abortions are even worse..
Keep away troublesome thoughts. You need to enjoy this my friend, to the fullest.
I have a little predicament. I usually deal with this shit myself, but I need some external help/comments.
I've become good friends with one of my friends girlfriend. She's got the whole "nerdy girl" going on, and she's pretty cool. I can talk to her about anything and we have a lot of stuff in common.
The problem is that every time we meet(at partys and get togethers), she's all over me(physically).
Her boyfriend(my friend) is not the jealous type, so he doesn't really care, but I do feel it can get pretty tense, since she gets really, how to put it, close each time she drinks.
This new years eve for example, we were partying and she constantly held around me and gave me hugs etc.
Almost everyone in the party thought she was my girlfriend, so I had to tell everyone we weren't dating.
Anyways, I'm wondering if I should tell her to stop being so intimate at partys.
I'm a bit wary, thinking maybe she will be hurt or angry, if I tell her, but it's getting annoying. It's not helping me find a girlfriend either..

If you value your friendship at all, my advice would be to try to keep her at arm's length
