It does not a matter how old you are. If you are sexually active you should use birth control and you should also use protection against STDs. Birth control does not always offer STD protection. For some abstinence is the right decision, although a lot of teens don’t want to wait to have sex until they’re married. Puberty brings many sexual feelings, and many choose to have sex for the first time during their teenage years. If you do choose to have sex make sure that you use contraception. There are many options for contraception, and you should consult your doctor to find one that’s right for you.
