my boyfriend of 2 years and i recently just started having sex. we bought condoms, and he still pulls out before he comes to be extra careful. however, i'm still paranoid. i want to go on birth control but i DO NOT want to tell my mom. she would freak out and probably forbid me from seeing my boyfriend. (my whole family has waited until marriage) so i was wondering how i could get birth control without actually going through my mom who would in turn go through my doctor. also, are there any other options besides the actual pill? i've been told it costs about $35 dollars through planned parenthood .. thanks!
Bella12 answered Monday December 3 2007, 12:11 am: There are actual places that basically just cell Birth control, you should still go through your doctor and get a pap test done yearly now since you are sexually active. The birth control centers are very affordable and your doctor will probably be able to recommend a specific brand and a place where you can buy it. Your doctor has to keep your business confidential, she cannot call your mother and tell her what is going on. Call and book an appointment for yourself your doctor will FOR SURE be able to give you the specifics. By the way im really glad to hear you guys waited a while before having sex and just becuase you might go on birth control doesnt mean your 100% safe, he should still always use a condom!

I goes under your skin. in your arm Its about the size of a matchstick. It has no mantinence. You have little or no period, but if you do continue to have a period it could be heavy. An IUD makes you blood heavy too. And it goes inside you. The shot you get every three months, Which may get expensive. If you have a health department, you may be able to get the services free. They also have over the couter stuff like sponges that contain spermicides. You insert them into you and it kills sperm instantly. [ khadiya's advice column | Ask khadiya A Question ]
yourrtrustyhelpline answered Sunday December 2 2007, 7:04 pm: go on google and look up a free clinic in your area. just go in, tell them you want birth control pills and to keep it confidential. if you ask them not to tell, they can't. they'll give you a check up and i think most places are free, but i'm not sure, it depends on the place.
