Planned Parenthood &BC perscriptions?

[villagetheatre.livejournal.com]

So, my doctor gives me a really hard time when I have to get a BC refill and it's really frustrating. They always say I have to come in for a check-up to get another refill. And I don't live near my gyno to make things worse! Anyways, so I was wondering what the procedure was to get a prescription for Ortho-Lo at Planned Parenthood? Of if you even CAN. Thanks!

I forgot to add:

I know from going that PP wants you to have a vaginal exam once a year. Maybe even requires it, I'm not sure I've never had a problem about doing it. After that your good until the next year. I've never had to do anything when I just go in and pick up pills. Actually I usually have my boyfriend or my mom get my pills for me.

Have you had a pap this year? If so you can probably take in the paperwork so that you don't have to have another one, thats what I did.

I didn't mean to make it sound like they just hand out pills to anyone who walks in.

I seem to remember PP requiring me to come in either 3 or 6 months after the *first* exam, to check that I was okay with the BC I was given, and then just yearly after that. But I don't know if that'd still apply if you've been on that BC for a while already.
