Usually they will give you other options
besides the pills, i.E nuvaring, patch,
shot, etc... Do a pap, find out family
history such as b/p problems, kidney
disease, heart disease, etc... But
usually no blood tests. Good luck.

I doubt they would give a blood test..
They just need to know everything like how
the person above me said, and ask
questions if you smoke blah blah stuff
like that just mostly alot of questions

They will do a pap though. If you feel
more comfortable and don't want parents to
know or whatever the case may be you can
find a planned parenthood (if in your
area) and they can keep it confidential.
