Hi Sushee, congratulations on having such a relationship with your teenage daughter that you are aware that she is now sexually active. A really big deal I think. I would recommend that she does try the mini pill, and actually see if she has a memory problem - I bet now that Charlie is in the house she has a good reminder IYKWIM. That way her hormones are "mucked" around too much. Also educate her about her cycle, so that if she does forget the pill she can ascertain her "risk" and possibly opt for the morning after pill and/or know when to abstain as a double precaution. Plus once the girls go on the pill/contraception I get the sense that the boys are let off the hook and condoms not thought of. Condoms still remain very important in terms of STDs etc.
