elw5039 answered Tuesday May 11 2010, 4:08 pm: I guess it depends on where you live but I live in PA and here you can go to planned parenthood and get it free if your under 18 and they dont tell your parents. If your over 18 you have to pay for it its like 30 a month. Hope I helped! [ elw5039's advice column | Ask elw5039 A Question ]
OhMyLucyDarling answered Sunday May 9 2010, 8:42 pm: Yes and No
If you are over the age of 18, Legally you are an adult and you are entitled to your privacy.
If you are under the age of 18, You can go to planned parent hood but when you go for doctor check ups eventually it will show up. There is no way to fully hide a birth, Once you give birth with the right doctor you can figure it out. [ OhMyLucyDarling's advice column | Ask OhMyLucyDarling A Question ]

selectopaque answered Tuesday June 15 2004, 4:17 am: In my state, no.
Talk to your doctor, ask if he/she can tell your parents what you talk to him/her about.
If you don't have a doctor, try to find a family planning type place around where you live. Around here family planning is a place where teens and all women can go for birth control and sexual safety advice. Hopefully there's a place like that everywhere. Try searching online for birth control clinics or something. [ selectopaque's advice column | Ask selectopaque A Question ]

babigotbak155 answered Wednesday June 2 2004, 2:26 pm: at my doctors office there is this thing on the back of all the doors that shows you how you can get it without your parents knowing, so yeah you can. but you need to get to your doctors to check that out for yourself.

FernGully answered Wednesday June 2 2004, 11:46 am: I would think that you could, because you can ask your doctor and they have patient confidentiality.
However, birth control really does a number on a woman. Physically and emotionally. The side effects are horrendous and you really would need to have a reason as to why you are changing so much suddenly. Your parents will know something is up with you.
Also, if complications happen, which sometimes they do - you could get hurt. Your parents wouldn't know what was wrong or how to help you.
Siren_Cytherea answered Wednesday June 2 2004, 12:08 am: In some states, you can. If you're at the legal age, planned parenthood, or whatever, is the place to go.
I really reccomend, though, that you let someone know you're gonna go on the pill (if that's what you're going to use) because the side effects can be really...not fun. It might not have any side effects, but still...
Talk to your doctor first and see if it would conflict with any meds you're already on. Good luck...be sensible!
