Planned Parenthood &BC perscriptions?

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!

"My" doctor (or whatever doctor is free during Open Clinic Days) usually writes me a prescription for 6 or 9 months, and then I just get refills at the pharmacy until I run out and have to go in again. Ask if they can write you out prescriptions for 6 months at a time, and explain your insurance RE: check ups situation?

Whenever I call to get another re-fill, they transfer me and have me make another appointment, and I have to get paps every 6 months, so my insurance won't pay for my appointment until it's after that time frame, so my next appointment is the end of September... but I'll be done with this pack long before then! I'll try asking them if they can write me a 6 month prescription.

I have absolutely NO idea why they make this so f**king difficult!
