For the other 15% the can actually get pregnant while having sex during their period. If you are having sex you should be on birth control and using condoms as well. You should also know when you ovulate. There are kits at the drugstore you can purchase to help you learn when during your cycle you ovulate. Once you know this you will know when it is best not to have sex.
At 14 years of age or older , by law, you have medical confidentiality. Meaning you can go to your doctor or someplace like Planned Parenthood and receive birth control.
The law allows for you to visit a doctor or clinic in total confidentiality, meaning no one, not the doctors or the nurses can tell your mother the reason for your visit without your written release of information. The law is called HIPPA, Health Information Personal Act Privacy. This law was passed for a number of reasons one of which was to ensure that young women would seek proper medical care. As a by-product of this law you can request birth control and receive it without parental knowledge or permission
At a Planned Parenthood clinic, or doctor's office or any other women's health clinic, they will exam you, make sure you're not already pregnant and prescribe a proper form of birth control for you.
The clinics that offer these services are Planned Parenthood clinics and any clinic that offers abortions. Clinics that do not offer abortions often are anti-abortion rights clinics; many of which also do not believe in birth control as well. So make sure you choose the right clinic.
