Wild allegation

Today, I woke up to my boyfriend throwing my birth control box at me and shouting that I was a slut for cheating on him since we never had sex. I attempted to explain the birth control was for a condition I have that causes my period to be non-existent. He didn't believe me. FML

dump that asshole what a douchebag. Why the **** would you not tell him about before. Why the **** was he going through your stuff.

YDI you should have told your boyfriend when you first started taking it because the hell is he going to think if you are taking birth control and you never told him?

Again, it's none of his business what medication she takes.

Why in the crap would she have to tell him about her medical condition and/or medications? So that if he sees the box lying around he doesn't turn into a angry, inconsiderate ass? Um, no. I think it's his responsibility to a) control his emotions and b) trust his girlfriend if she tells him that it's for medical reasons. He's going to feel stupid when he asks his friends or looks this up on Google.

Get your mom to tell him... That's kind of funny how retarded some boys are.

wow, there are so many different reasons why a girl would take birth control i went on birth control after a girl i knew was date raped, so not because i was having sex but just to be safe.

That's why they include the Morning After pill in a rape kit.

The morning after pill really isn't all that effective.

Morning after pills are basically a chemical abortion

No it isn't. The morning after pill is a larger dose of regular birth control that prevents an egg from releasing after you've had unprotected sex or an accident (condom breaks etc). Again, the morning after pill is birth control, it is made of levonorgestrel which is in regular birth control too, it prevents pregnancy. The abortion pill is called RU468, and is made from mifepristone and misoprostol, it terminates pregnancy. If the egg is already fertilized, and you're already pregnant, the morning after pill will NOT induce an abortion or get rid of the fetus.

I'm really sorry about that. At least when people find out I take birth control they ask why. I'm sorry about your condition, I actually have cysts and the pill is supposed to stop them.

It's not your responsibility to educate every man out there on the basics of female physiology. If that's his initial reaction, then there are other emotional issues at hand between you two, or possibly just with him. I know many women who take birth control constantly, as they go in and out of relationships, just because it's easier. Myself and others have taken it partially to regulate our hormonal cycles. And as others have mentioned, you may have started taking it in preparation for your relationship with him. He NEVER has a right to THROW something at you, and call you derogatory names based on his own ignorance. Once you become an adult, your ignorance to BASIC facts is your own fault. For your own sake OP, find someone who is more respectful of you and the condition that you deal with.

I have a friend with the same issue :/ She has to take pregnancy pills although she never even kissed a boy.

OK having your period is what makes you able to get pregnant, so why would you take something (birth control) that's supposed to prevent you from getting pregnant to get something (period) that helps you get pregnant, that's completely backwards, this fml almost sounds fake...

Not fake, I have the same condition. The birth control helps your body to get your period on a regular track so that someday you can have children without as many complications.

You're a ******* idiot. Having your period is not what makes you able to get pregnant. Ovulating is what makes you able to get pregnant. Seriously, learn female anatomy.

Are you a guy,you moron? There are women who don't have periods and get put on birth control pills. I should know;I used to be one of them until I got rid of the pills(I added weight and ate like a pig)

They teach Sex Ed in 8th grade in my county.

if you were blessed with a condition that made you not have a period, why would you try to correct it?? periods suck dude. besides, the periods you get on the pill are whats called a withdrawal bleed, and isnt the same thing as a natural period. so basically, if youre not having sex and you dont have acne, youre just making yourself bleed for a week for no reason.. fun!

It is NOT a blessing. I am horrified by how many people fail to realize that if a hormone imbalance is to blame for not getting your period that it is a very serious condition. My body does not make sex hormones on its own, and as a result, I was diagnosed with full-blown osteoporosis when I was 19. Women NEED estrogen for bone health. If your body isn't producing any (like mine never has), then your bones are at a huge risk for serious problems. I've had to take Actonel (granny medication!), calcium supplements, vitamin D and follow a strict set of guidelines (activities I can and can't do, foods/drinks I can't have such as caffeine, soda, etc.). I take the pill to give me some hormones to help my bones, and as much as I hate having periods (or technically withdrawal bleeding), I would gladly trade my unhealthy bones for having normal periods and healthy bones.

not having your period is not healthy. long-term amenorrhea can lead to osteoporosis and all sorts of other crap.

It's not up to you to decide what other people should want their bodies to do. If she wants to regulate her period, it's no more your business than the boyfriend's.

Stop dating thirteen year old boys. He's an idiot. Plenty of girls go on birth control for multiple reasons, including reasons like they're having irregular periods, having no period at all, acne, etc. It controls your hormones. Not having your period is a very bad thing. Tell him to grow up, or get rid of him. You don't deserve someone who can't think outside of his own little bubble.
