What about the pill?

The birth control pill is an oral contraceptive, meaning you take it by mouth. For the pill to work, you have to take it every day. Most women who take the pill have a period every 4 weeks (1 a month). One type of birth control pill reduces the number of periods from 1 period a month to about 1 period every 3 months.

Some common side effects of birth control pills are nausea, headaches, acne, increased blood pressure, breast tenderness, bloating, weight gain and depression. However, not every woman who takes the pill will have side effects. You may have to try several types of birth control pills before you find the type that is best for you. The pill may reduce cramping and shorten the number of days of bleeding during the menstrual period. The pill may also help premenstrual syndrome (PMS). Women who take the pill should not smoke. Smoking increases the risk of serious side effects, such as blood clots.
