Birth control pills contain progesterone and estrogen, two hormones that regulate the menstrual cycle and determine how heavy your period is each month. Taking birth control pills causes many people to experience lighter, shorter periods. If your period is particularly heavy and you're ready to manage it with medication, this might be the right option for you.  Talk to your doctor about getting a birth control pill prescription. Everyone's body is different, and there are a lot of different types of pills designed to cater to different needs. Make an appointment with your doctor or go to your local health clinic to get the prescription that's right for you. Take the pill according to instructions. If you skip a few days, you might end up experiencing a heavy or irregular period - not to mention, the pill will no longer be effective as a birth control measure. Be sure to take the pill every single day, at the same time every day, to experience the benefits you're looking for. The Pill isn't the only type of birth control that can work to regulate your period. If you don't want to take a pill every day, consider these other options that will have the same benefits as the standard birth control pill:  The birth control patch. This is usually placed on the arm, back or thigh. It distributes the same hormones as the Pill, only they're absorbed through your skin. The patch has to be changed every few weeks.  The birth control ring. This is a small ring inserted into the vagina and changed out once a month. It releases hormones into the bloodstream.  A hormonal intrauterine device (IUD). This is a small metal device that is implanted in the uterus by a health care provider. It releases hormones into the uterus and works for up to 12 years. The IUD causes some people to miss periods or have lighter periods, but for others it can make periods irregular. If you would prefer not to have your period at all, there are now options that will let you eliminate it altogether. Several drug companies make pills that create either very light or nonexistent periods, depending on your preference. The pills are similar to regular birth control pills, but they contain a type of hormone that can regulate the period to an even greater degree.

Article: When you’re a teenager in high school, the last thing you’re thinking about is a job you may have in your 20s or 30s. Unfortunately, however, you need to. Posts you write and upload as a teenager can and will be found when you’re an adult. While you may delete the post from your social media account, that doesn’t mean it’s completely deleted from the internet. Stop and seriously think about everything you post on social media when you’re a teenager. Before you post something, ask yourself if it’s something your parents would post online. If your parents wouldn’t post it, don’t post it. Posting photos online, in and of itself, is not a problem. However, there are some types of photos that should never be posted online and others that shouldn’t be posted often. Some types of photos are actually illegal to post online and you can get into serious trouble if you do post them. Other types of photos make you look rude, mean, petty, ignorant, or full of yourself. Certain types of photos can get you kicked out of school, kicked off a team or club, put in detention or expelled, or even prevent you from being hired for a job in the future.  Never post sexual, nude, or even partially nude photos of yourself or someone else. Never post an embarrassing photo of someone else. Never post a photo that is intended to be harmful or hurtful to someone else. Avoid posting too many selfies, they may give the wrong impression about you to future employers. While you have the right to your own opinion, you should be very careful where you write that opinion and with whom you share that opinion. If possible, if your point of view is way out of the mainstream, you want to consider not writing it down at all, or only writing it down where you can write an intelligent explanation to go with it. In other situations, you may think that posting an opinion or view online is funny (even if you don’t believe it), but in reality, it’s rude, harmful, and possibly illegal. Just because someone you know has posted an opinion or extreme view online doesn’t mean you should too.  Posts made by high school students have actually caused colleges to withdraw offers of acceptance. Hate speech is illegal, regardless of the reason you posted it. Don’t assume that because you’re posting something in a closed or private group on social media, or even in a private message board not run by a social media company, that your messages will remain private or protected. The internet can be amazing, depressing, helpful, annoying, useful, and upsetting. Limit yourself to using the internet for positive reasons only and avoid using the internet for activities that will only end up hurting you or other people. Also, avoid using the internet for an excessive amount of time each day. Try to give yourself a daily limit of online time and make an effort to spend a specific amount of time offline.  The internet can be used for positive reasons such as: research for school, comparing colleges you’re interested in, connecting with friends, looking up interesting craft project ideas, finding instructions on how to use something, and participating in an online community that helps you work through something. The internet can also be used for very negative reasons, such as: comparing yourself to other people, bullying or intimidating other people, getting revenge on someone, reducing your ability to communicate offline, and connecting with people who want to hurt or harm you.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Think twice before posting anything online. Avoid posting photos online that may ruin your future. Keep your rude opinions or extreme views to yourself. Use the internet for positive reasons only.
