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!

What do you mean by check up? I have to get my blood pressure & weight checked when I get refills from Planned Parenthood, but not a physical exam every time I go in. You should call your local PP and see what their policy is.

To clarify, my PP only gives out 4 months of NuvaRing at a time because there have been issues with patients not storing them correctly. When I say I go in for refills, I mean when I go in for my next set of rings. I don't know what my PP's policy for pills is (IIRC, it's the same), but yours might be different. I do have to have a physical once yearly to continue getting my BC.
