I’m 17F and I want to go on Birth control

I’ll be 18 in a few months and honestly I can’t deal with having periods, for starters I got mine when I was 9 and from then till now my periods have never been on time and I’ve always missed a few months but whenever I do get my period it’s super painful and most importantly mentally I am drained and exhausted to the point where my mood swings like crazy…

I’m not sexually active but obviously that’s not just the only reason why one should be on birth control.

I wanna be on it because I can’t get my period, if there is a way to not go through it and block it I’ll take it.

Idk, my mindset is right or not and what are the consequences of birth control, please help me! 🙏🏽
