Birth control how?

[Emm_jane]

im 16 and live in ct.... Do I have to have parent approval or can I just... Idk ask a dr? I don't really think it's up to my parents, I want to be responsible and then not allowing me to get birth control won't keep me from having sex so.... Idk what to do. Advice?

Hi there.  Well, I commend you for trying to at least have responsible sex. that is good news for you.  Check out planned parenthood in your area.  Most will see young ladies without parents and can provide birth control pills without parental consent.  

I just looked up Conn. and you do not need parental consent in your state.  check out planned parenthood for birth control.  good luck

If that 'won't keep you from having sex' then I hope you will still use protection. Since it seems you want to be as safe as possible, maybe at least wait till you see a Dr and get on some type of birth control before you continue. Search for Planned Parenthood clinics in your area. They may be able to tell you over the phone what are the requirements.

I live in AZ and you have to have your parents with ya before your 18. I hope you change your mind about having sex.. It feels a lot better when you are married hun! At 16 the consequences are just not worth a guy that is most likely only interested in sex!
