Sexual Health - Men Forum - Getting Tested For Sti/stds..?

I am 15 years old and may have an STI or STD. I am wondering if I ask a friend to drive me to planned parenthood and get checked, will my testing and results will be kept confidential even from my parents and even if my tests turn up positive?

Yes Planned Parenthood will help you with testing and condoms. I suggest you start using them to avoid getting other STD's. Some of them arent cured with medicine. I made the mistake of not using protection and now I have herpes.

But, they will keep all of your information confidential. They are a great organization and will help you, so get your but down there......'

Best wishes
