    You are awfully young to be starting birth control. But I guess you should talk to a gynecologist about it and they will know if you are definitely too young or not. I know that if you are 13 you are still in the later stages of puberty, which messes with your hormones and then to have even more hormones in you because of the pill will really mess up your emotions and your rationality. I am 20 and on the pill and it makes me so moody and randomly depressed or anxious about stupid stuff. So I couldn't imagine being 13 and having all that on top of it. But talk to a doctor about it.

    if you think you should do it

    hear is some info

    What Is It?

    The birth control pill (also called "the Pill") is a daily pill that contains hormones to change the way the body works and prevent pregnancy. Hormones are chemical substances that control the functioning of the body's organs. In this case, the hormones in the Pill control the ovaries and the uterus.

    How Does It Work?

    Most birth control pills are "combination pills" containing a combination of the hormones estrogen and progesterone to prevent ovulation (the release of an egg during the monthly cycle). A woman cannot get pregnant if she doesn't ovulate because there is no egg to be fertilized. The Pill also works by thickening the mucus around the cervix, which makes it difficult for sperm to enter the uterus and reach any eggs that may have been released. The hormones in the Pill can also sometimes affect the lining of the uterus, making it difficult for an egg to attach to the wall of the uterus.

    Well if you are planning to become sexually active in the near future then birth control would be a good idea OR if you need it because your periods are going crazy then you should go and see your Doctor about that as well.

    If you are thinking about becoming sexually active at your age, please really think about it before you do it, to me you are too young for this.
