Question about the patch-please help

I had a question, how would you get a perscription without seeing a doctor or so? Because i AM a teen, and i am sexually active with my boyfriend and i just was thinking that i'm going to need protection. But i don't want my mom to find out, and she's a bit strict, about me going out and so on. So i would have a hard time going to see a doctor or so to get a perscription. I was wondering if anyone had any ideas on how i could get a perscription to get birth control pills or the patch? thank you so much if ya'll could help me answer this.

Hey there. Unfortunately this bored cannot give advice to anyone under the age of 18. So if you are under 18, i'm sorry. You can call Planned Parenthood or view the site(www.plannedparenthood.org) or call your physician about possibly receiving birth controls pills without your mom know.

Goodluck to you! and sorry for the lack of advice.
