There are so many ways to be protected by birth control. Education for teens is especially vital in this issue. The pill is now celelbrating 50 years. We are all familiar with the ways of birth control. Aat what age did you learn about birth control?

I learned birth control at the age of 14. This was taught by one of our teacher. I think this should be taught to students to prevent early pregnancy.

hi sender I learned about birth control in my teens but had not reason to use it, but I married at 30 had my first child at 31, my second child too soon at 10 and a half months so turned to the pill. but I had had so much damage from the second childbirth I had to have an emergency hysterectomy so could not have any children even though we wanted three. So was only on the pill for maybe three months then had to have surgery.
