Do you have to be a certain age to use the ones that the doctor puts in you and works for like 5 years?

Would at 16 year old be better off on the pill or something else?

Im just curious?

I've been on the Pill since 16 and it's fine. Just don't forget about it, I make it part of my bedtime routine :)

It depends on the girl.  One of my boyfriend's ex's got that when she was like 14/15, so I think you can.

I believe you're talking about the IUD, the most common one called the "Mirena" IUD.

IUDs are not typically recommended to women who are childless. It's harder to insert into a woman who hasn't given birth. You can certainly ask about and I encourage you to try, I had a Mirena and I really liked the freedom I felt with it (not having to remember things, change things, repeatedly buy contraception, etc), but just don't be surprised if they're unwilling at your age.

They typically don't like to use IUDs with women who don't have at least one child and aren't in a long term relationship.

It wouldn't hurt to check and see if your doctor would do it, but don't be surprised if she refuses.
