Is there a pill women can take to prevent pregnancy,?
It’s called birth control. And yes there is a pill. It’s taken every day at the exact same time (if you choose the pill as contraceptive). No being late or missing. The pill is not stupid-proof, so irresponsibility risks pregnancy.There are many forms such as the pill (every day), IUD (it ranges), shot (every 3 months), etc. You get it prescribed to you by a doctor. Typically this is the best way to get it because once you become sexually active, it’s recommended to get a yearly pap smear to screen for cervical cancer. Most doctors require you to get a yearly pap in order to keep prescribing it to you. Some people experience side effects depending on which contraceptive they choose. I recommend talking to a doctor and finding out which form of contraceptive is right for you. And I agree, if you are uneducated about the risks of pregnancy and the most common STDs like HPV and Chlamydia, then you should not be having sex.
