Kitty B asked:
I’ve suffered from really bad cramps and nausea from my period since high school- to the point where I’d be taken out of the school in a wheelchair during an ‘episode’. I’ve been taking advil for years, but their effectiveness has lowered- so much that I take 2 every 4 hours and still suffer from moderate cramping on them. I’ve heard that birth controls can reduce these symptoms, so I won’t miss college classes or crew practice anymore.(During our spring training, I actually got kicked out of the boat for the week because I had one of my ‘episodes’ in the boat). I went to my physician and secretly got a prescription, but it’ll show up on my insurance bill- that my parents pay. I can’t afford the pills without insurance. I’ve tried discussing it before with my mother, but she got upset and ended up yelling at me that I “didn’t need drugs to solve all my problems” and stormed off. How do I tell her?

Well, if you’re in college, you are old enough to make that decision. Look into family planning clinics in your area. You will probably be able to get your contraceptives free. That way you won’t have to deal with your mom’s attitude and be dependent on her to pay for your contraceptives.

insurance doesn’t pay for b.c. and only the visit will show up on the explanation of benefits sheet they get in the mail. if they ask about the visit just tell them the truth. you went to see the doc b/c of your periods and cramping.

You’re going to have to tell her eventually. It’s more mature if you start off the conversation. Tell her that you have been suffering, and she should respect the fact that you have done something to stop it. You respected yourself, you took care of yourself, heck, your pain will be gone! And if she still gets angry, then just let her vent for a while. She’ll come to a realization at some point.

Your parents are afraid that birth control gives you a “license to have sex”, however they can be very medically necessary. Your mother yelling at you means she probably thinks you wanted them so that you could be more sexually active, etc.
You are going to have to tell them, but you can have your crew instructor discuss your episode on the boat (because of your period) and if you have to, set up an appointment with the doctor and your parents.
I hope that all goes well with you.

Have you ever tried to have a conversation with her about this that was moderated by your doctor? She might be less irrational when a health professional is presenting her with all the benefits it provides you.

This is a tough one, honestly. You’re old enough to know what you need and you’re old enough to decide what is medically best for you. If your mother goes on a rampage, you cannot and should not let it deter you from seeking your own self-comfort. I **** to ask, but is there a history there of substance abuse of any sort in your immediate family? This may be where your mother’s anxiety is stemming from. Of course, this is not an excuse for her, but if she would be willing to go with you to your next doctor’s appointment, your doctor should be able to gently explain and give information to her to help calm her fears. I’m sure if she has a headache, she would take an aspirin. This is no different, except that, unless you underwent a hysterectomy, this is going to occur monthly until menopause. She should be quite aware of this. After all, she is a female as well.
Good Luck!

You just tell her. No matter what happens you need to take care of yourself. I’m surprise your parents didn’t take you to the gynocologist to get the pills for you earlier. Your suffer bad cramps and its disrupting your life. That is very wrong. Your also in college! You need to continue taking those pills and tell your parent why your taking them and your going to continue. Tell them its DISRUPTING your life. Its AFFECTING your life. If they can’t understand that your an ADULT and need to take CARE of your HEALTH, maybe you need to find a job with a good health care plan. I really hope your parents are understanding and this helps.

Maybe you should tell your Dad instead? Sometimes they can be more level-headed than the Moms are, and can help her understand the facts.
Or, ask your Dr. for a cheaper pill They only cost about $20 per month, maybe you can swing that much? Or try a Planned Parenthood office, where you can get it cheaper.
If those aren’t options, then could you just tell your mom that you might have *** and want to be protected? It’s a lie, but maybe she’ll be more accepting of it.
Good luck!

insurance usually doesn’t pay for birth control, and if they did that wouldn’t show up a statement anyhow. don’t tell them. your all grown up and it’s really none of their buisness.

Only my mom and brother know…I told her that my physician recommended it (heavey, unpredictable and long periods)and it helps. She hates the idea that I’m puting “chemicals” in my body…but they are natural hormones, correct?…just have to find the right brand and dosage.
Just tell her that you’re taking it for medical reasons -which is true- and your dr recommended it -which is also true-. Check out Planned Parenthood or your college health center and see if you can get your pills through them for a discounted price.

Does she know about the Advil? Why is she okay about that and not BC if she doesn’t like drugs? Sounds like she thinks you have another reason for going on BC. You need to explain the situation to her or get your doctor to do that.
