meg2989 agony auntOkay so I looked up information, and sadly I have found out that they do not allow Minors to be tested or treated without parental consent in Four states. Utah and Texas are two of them. I can give you the link if you want but I think you are going to have to tell your parents you need to get tested. In addition if you suspect you do have an STD I have another link that can tell you about each different type of STD or STI and what the symptoms are. Im so sorry I could be more help. Wait you know what I just reread my information and I lied lol. ( not intentionally of course) In the third paragraph of this website http://www.guttmacher.org/pubs/tgr/03/4/gr030404.html You may be abole to get help from Title X supported clinics, because they enforce patient confidentiality. Read it and seeif you can find a Title X supported Clinic around you area. This is a Title X site specifically for your state, but it doesnt list the cities or towns the clinics are in, butthere is a search engine. http://www.guttmacher.org/pubs/state_data/states/texas.html Good luck honey!

meg2989 agony auntOkay so idk what state you live in, but if its new york then there is law stating all minors can get free STD testing without parental consent. It would really help me to know what state u live in so I can help find organizations for you, because certain states have different laws. Please message me, if you would like me to help u find a clinic.

Planned Parenthood does it. Just remember to bring cash so it won't show up on your bill. They can tell you over the phone how much it should cost. They are VERY good at being discrete, though laws regarding minors vary from state to state. This is what they're there for!
