Well, I have been dating this guy for
about 2 months and we both have been
sexually active for about 2 years each.
He has been with 3 girls but all of them
were on birth control. He is only the
second guy I have been with, but I am not
on birth control. He wants me to be,
but I am scared to tell my mom that I need
to be on birth control. Is there a way
for me to get birth control without my
parents finding out? well, to help you
all out, i'm only 16 and he is 19. That
is sorta why I don't want to tell my mom I
need birth control. Maybe, this will
help.

If you can set up an appointment with your
doctor and request the b/c on your own
then you should try. But if not then you
should tell your mom. I was like that a
long time ago but I would make jokes about
it because she was so overprotective like
"well I suggest you get me the pill if you
dont want no rugrats running around!" you
need to be cool about it and let her know
you need to get it. My mom even went out
of her way to get me and my fiance condoms
until I could get on the patch! Hahaha
and she says, let me know when you need
more! Ill get them quick! I didnt even
want to ask her for the pill but she knew
I needed it and said shed make an
appointment to get me it. Of course I was
18 so she was ok that I was older. How
old are you anyways. Well its good you
need the pill. Try whatever and good
luck!
Go to the health department nearest you
and they could give you birth control
pills without letting your parents know.
If it comes down to it ask a teacher, a
friend mom or whoever you can trust with
your secrets.

Have your periods been regular? Mine were
not so the Dr. Put me on birth control to
regulate me and now I still take it but
for other reasons and my grandmother
didn't have to know.

Go to your local planned parent hood. I
started the pill when I was 17. They make
it very easy, and very confidential. It
is always better to be honest with your
parents, but if you know they will
question you and make it uncomfortable,
then whatever local free clinic in your
area I would suggest to make an
appointment with them.
