| Name: | Birth Control Questions |
| Website: | Please check the FAQs before posting a question. |
| About: | This is a community is dedicated to questions and information regarding birth control. You may not find all the answers you need here -- Certain questions should be presented to a doctor.
Call 1-800-230-PLAN to reach the nearest Planned Parenthood health center, and 1-888-NOT-2-LATE for information on where to obtain emergency contraception in your area.
If you don't have a livejournal account or rather not post in the community, I will be more than happy to answer e-mail requests.
NEW: BIRTH CONTROL PACKET INSERTS
NEW: A General FAQ for Birth Control
The above search feature is only available to paid accounts. If you would like to treat the community to a paid account so everyone may continue to benefit from this feature it would be greatly appreciated.
Simple Rules.
I understand that most of us have probably had undesirable side effects and those stories are always welcome, as long as they aren't used as a scare tactic. However......
Rumours have no place here. I do not care about what you've read on the web or heard from a co-worker's brother's cousin's girlfriend. People are much more likely to complain about something rather than praise it. I will not tolerate someone giving advice on a drug they know nothing about.
For more general rules and conduct expected from members, check out this section of the memories: General Rules on Conduct. It's nothing overwhelmingly demanding, just about getting along and being respectful and non-judgmental towards one another.
Before posting a question, check the memories to see if it's already been answered.
Please INCLUDE A TITLE* WITH YOUR POST. You will receive more responses and make archiving memories much easier. This will also be beneficial for new members, as they can read over recent posts to see if their inquiry was already addressed -- Therefore limiting the amount of repeat topics.
*Descriptive titles such as the brand of BC you are posting about, side effects, cost, concerns, etc. "help plz" and "question" are not suitable subject lines.
Keep posts on topic and NO DRAMA. I thought that'd be obvious, but it seems BC may also be affecting some people's common sense.

The ONLY exception to the rule are contraceptive communities.
This is NOT an "am I pregnant?" community. amipregnant is the appropriate place to ask such questions.
