Re: birth control
Lol, not trying to be smart, but you have some options. 1. Withdrawal method. 2. condom, 3. sponge with spermicide, or have her Dr. write a script and go visit some onliners. Drugstore.com is reasonable, but it depends on what brands your getting. Either way best thing is to prob have her get examined by her Gyno Dr. My wife's Dr. gave her free samples whenever she ran out when she was on them. If she tells the Doc. her situation she may be able to help her out, if not she'll prob have to get her Gyno Dr. to write or call in a script. The cheapest i have seen is at CanadaPharmacy.com. 1800-891-0844 They have Ortho Cyclen (3 month supply for $55.) Have her Dr. call in the script if she is willing to do it.

Re: birth control
Only option is what i listed above except for abstinence, which im sure wont happen, lol! I know of no Dr. that will give a script without a prior office visit. Has she not a regular Dr. of Gyno?? If she does she can explain her situation to her over the phone, and im sure she will give some kind of discount, samples etc. Other avenues are to look in the phone book for health services that help ppl in your situation. I know there are government run programs that aid in this area, but it varies from state to state, and i believe you must meet some income guidelines.

Re: birth control
when in doubt, pull out!!!
Also their is several things like phim script. It is free prescription insurance. It help out a little if you don't have any at all. Most people regular insurance in Alabama don't pay much. Like $5.00. But they offer mail in, at atlot cheaper rate. I asked my employer once about the insurance and why they wouldn't pay for birth control. She had no good answer. Then I said, wouldn't a baby cost the insurance company more!!! Oh well that is Alabama for you.... You here that Byron..

Back when I was in high school, my girl got it there for free and with out her parents knowingWe were only 17 at the time. This brings back a memory when I went to the ER with her because she was having crazy cramps and pains. Her parents assumed she was still a virgin. The ER doc asked her in front of her Mom and me, if she was sexually active. She said, Yes.
The doctor then told her that she had a Unary Track Infection. He told her she should start using condoms as well. Now, that was a long night!!!

Re: birth control
try getting a 14 year old pregnant when your 16... and the egg attaches in the flopian tube, and she comes close to dying.
then having to sit down with both parents and looking at her 300lb dad who appears ready to sprint across the room and tear ones head off..
hindsight is 20/20
