Answer 1

Try Planned Parenthood
here is the site and locator http://www.plannedparenthood.org/pp2/portal/

birth control info:http://www.plannedparenthood.org/pp2/portal/medicalinfo/birthcontrol/
and you can just buy condoms at the store (drugstore, etc) They are normally by the pharmacy.

Good for you for being safe, responsible and prepared! =)

Answer 2

The only place I'm familiar with is Planned Parenthood (www.ppnyc.org). I also live in NYC, and they have three clinics - one each in the Bronx, Manhattan, and Brooklyn. Even though you live in Manhattan, none of them should be more than an hour away (much less, most likely). There probably are other family planning clinics (try searching online). Your parents do not have to and WILL NOT know if you visit Planned Parenthood (or any other clinic).

I'm not sure how old you are or if you have a job, but if you make under a certain amount (something like $18K/year), you're eligible for free services at PP, including exams and birth control (under the Family Planning Benefit Program). Just give PP a call (212 965 7000) to schedule an appointment - they'll ask you a few questions and if you're eligible, tell you what to bring. After that appointment, they'll give you an exam, and you can get your birth control pills the same day (for free if you're elgibile for FPBP)! FPBP will also send you an insurance card in a few weeks, and you can visit any other family planning clinic to get free services after that, not just PP. Even if you don't qualify for FPBP, PP operates on a sliding scale, so if you have low income, you'll get cheaper birth control.

As for condoms, if you're still in school, ask around - you can probably get them for free or a very low price. Many colleges/universities have a health department that offers exams and pills for a low cost like PP.

Answer 3

Does Manhattan have more births,more sexually active people? I do not know why you would want something that you do not need? You seem to have made excellent decisions so far why go behind your parents back and cause hurt? We have parents for a reason, it is because we need protection. In our teen years we need that more than ever. Nothing like sex "just happens" never.. Someone decided to do it. Waiting till you are an adult gives you time to be better informed to make that choice that can change your whole life. There are places that circumvent parental rights they think they are helping till they have kids of their own. Your parents have the right and the obligation to know what you are doing and that you are safe. So think about it the most popular choices are not necessarily the correct ones. Take care keep "Doing the Right Thing"
Time gives us all a much better perspective,

PS Long term birth control is not safe for you, and on another note you can get pregnant during your period. In the teen years the body is just getting the rhythm of the hormones regulated that takes the years of your teens. The cycle can be off and you can ovulate at unusual times. I have known of this. I met a young girl who got pregnant before her first period showed! Best advice is wait till you can understand and handle all the responsibility that comes with sex. Protect yourself ~ wait~ O_-

Answer 4

family planning will provide anything you need and they don't tell your parents. If you are planning on being sexually active visit them first. A condom by its self is not 100% and neither is a diafram. But together they are. It is better if you take the pill.
Put them in the lining of your purse. Just don't forget to take them. Some of the girls have false bottoms in thier purses so family members like snoopy little sisters don't give you away.
Also use the rhythm system count 12-15 days after your period starts. That is your most fertile time, wait til you see someting like snot in your underwear that means you passed the ovum.
Your good to go the rest of the month. Can't get pregnant during your period.

Answer 5

Planned parenthood is the only place I know of. When I was 16, I got free birth control pills and condoms from there up until I was 18... then they were 60 bucks for one month supply. They have patient confidentiality... so legally, they cannot tell your parents. They also use "Lisa" so if they ever need to contact you they say "Hi is ---- there.. I'm Lisa, I go to school with her."
Good luck,

Answer 6

Planned Parenthood

Answer 7

Go to your local health department or planned parenthood because my local health department gives away bags of free condoms and gives birth control for free with a check up so I am sure yours will do the same.

Answer 8

Planned Parenthood will keep your information confidential regarding birth control.

Condoms aren't that expensive, and can be purchased at any drugstore (with no age limit).

Answer 9

ok you cant get birth control with out going to the doctor in that case you need a parent or someone who has a doctor and insurence condoms got to a regular drug stoe and they should be there and you shlod already know this so obviously you are to young dont through your life away

Answer 10

deliberate Parenthood could be your perfect wager. i do no longer understand in particular in PN what the regulations are, yet in maximum situations they are in a position to grant beginning administration, and now and back to minors. otherwise, there are no longer any OTC beginning administration pills or rings; you will would desire to have a Rx, and that takes parental units. Cheers to being risk-free and making clever possibilities!
