Question

Answer 1

To the girl above me, I live in RI too, + RI has the highest teen pregnancy rate out of all 50 states (my health teacher told my class that)

Answer 2

hmmm..that sux...dont have s*x untill you can get the BC,or go to another Dr.

Answer 3

According to www.plannedparenthood.org there is a Planned Parenthood center in Providence, RI. The phone number is [phone] but if that doesn't work try contacting the RI health department and ask them for a number for a free clinic in the state. Their website is:  http://www.health.state.ri.us/ and the phone number is [phone]

Answer 4

I'm not sure, but you could try going to a free clinic.

Answer 5

I think you need to switch to another doctor. Most people rely on doctor/patient confidentiality, meaning their doctor can't disclose any information. But this is screwy.

And-there is no planned parenthood in RI? Really?!

What about other clinics? What about traveling out of state. RI is small enough-is that possible? There might be planned parenthood clinics in surrounding areas...

OK-please wait to have s*x until you can get birth control. Or use condoms. And perhaps you can talk to your parents. That might be better than tempting fate...

Good luck

ps-I wonder what the rate of teen/unplanned pregnancy is in RI compared to the rest of the country?
