If you really do not want on them you can
just go off of them, but it seems very
strange to me that you only went on them
two weeks ago and you already want to get
off of them. It takes three months for
your body to get completely used to a new
or first b/c pill so if you are having
side effects they could very well go away.
As for weight gain, if you go on the
pill that is right for you then you will
not gain weight.
Being on the pill is the best way to make
periods normal, lighter and less painful.
Even if you are not sexually active, I do
not see why your mother would not
understand that. Taking pain pills to
calm the pain is one thing, but being on
the pill would make it so there is no more
pain. And your flow would be lighter and
your period would not last as long. (in
most cases) my period has always lasted
the same amount of time, but it is soooooo
much lighter and I hardly ever get cramps
now.
Do what is best for you, but if your
doctor recommended this, you really should
try it.
But, when you quit taking the pill your
body will be weird for a while because
your hormones are greatly affected. You
will probably spot, or may even get your
period again right away. Side effects of
going off of it could last quite some
time.
