"before starting birth control (about six months ago) i was really scared and nervous, i must report however, that i have seen no negative side effects and i would definitely recommend this pill. i am 17 years old and to any other teen who is thinking about going on the pill but has heard  negative things about i would like to tell you to just try it because chances are you&#039;ll see no side effects and if you do they will not be as permanent as bearing a baby. good luck!"
