ok. I am seventeen butI will turn 18 on the 15th of this month. I am getting married in July and I want to get on birth control. I have decided that I want to go on depo but I have a few questions that I hope someone can answer. First, DO I need to go to a gynecologist or can I justgo to a family planning clinic? Is a pap smear required? And do I( have to be 18 before I can go?

THanks so much,

Any info would be very helpful

I'm really sorry, but you have to *be* 18 to participate in this board. We could get into real trouble by giving advice to you. If you post back again on the 15th, I'm sure we'd be glad to share. I know it seems silly, but those are the rules.
