  3. Jeff, the doctor wont care that you had underage sex. It's way more important that you get it sorted out. Even if it's your family doctor, they cant tell your parents. And if you're really worried then go to a clinic instead. And don't think I'm preaching to you, I'm sixteen and I've had pretty much the same problem as you.”

  5. To the person that posted first....
    Don't worry, go to a GUM clinic. It's completely confidential, not even your Doctor has to be informed! And they NEVER judge! So go get it checked out.”
