My bf doesn't want me to go on the pill

If you don't mind how it will affect your body and your hormones, I think you should do it! It's sensible, and I don't know why he wouldn't want the extra protection against pregnancy? And of course there are the other positive side effects to consider (can clear up skin etc.)... it's bizarre, I've never heard of a boy against his girlfriend going on the pill before!

Well, just say that really it's down to the pill or no sex, pick or choose. It sounds harsh, but I really really wouldn't want to just be having sex with a condom, especially if I knew it was going to be regularly.

He says it will mess with my hormones (but that's the point ) I was looking into the pill/ implant/ injection etc as I don't want to bother with condoms but he doesn't seem to agree... what can I say to persuade him that it's ok?

You don't need to persuade him and you don't need to tell him. I'd be worried that he thinks the pills you take for your body are any of his business, I assume you're not a married couple trying for a child or anything.

EDIT: Are you talking about swapping condoms for pills? Then yeah in that case it's his choice too, he shouldn't feel pressured to have sex without a condom (STD's and all that!). But if it's about taking pills as well as using condoms as an extra precautionary measure then it really, really isn't anyone's business except your own.

I know it's more up to me but it does involve him as he doesn't want me to get pregnant either :P

Wtf surely it's a joint decision whether you have unprotected sex or not. I mean you could go on the pill by all means but he might not want to risk not using a condom.

I think unprotected sex is awesome but you have to respect each others wishes.

Tell him you're pregnant.
Leave it a few weeks.
Tell him you were joking.
Yay pill.

What? I don't want unprotected sex, I want to go on the pill. He just wants to use condoms on their own which has a higher risk of pregnancy than the pill on its own (condom is 98%, pill is 99% - I know it's not much difference but the pill is better)

I think it's really sweet that your boyfriend is so concerned about this. I'm sure there are lots of men who wouldn't give a crap about what their girlfriends did for contraception - as long as she didn't get pregnant. Many others would welcome their girlfriend going on the pill because of potentially better sex, more spontinaeity, not having to fork out for condoms - you get the idea - but not actually give a thought to the side effects, some very serious, that women can experience on the pill. I think it really shows that he cares about you and your welfare rather than just seeing you as, sorry to put it bluntly, a sexual object. If you personally want to go on the pill and your GP gives it all the go ahead, sit down with him, talk about it and reassure him.
