Teens: How do I buy a pregnancy test without my parent's knowing?

Well, I'm 13, and I had intercourse yesterday (my first time), and he wore a condom, but took it off after, and it had a hole in it. So, we think it broke. I need to know how to buy a pregnancy test without my parent's knowing. I can't drive or anything. Don't lecture me on teen sex.Teens: How do I buy a pregnancy test without my parent's knowing?
Ok babe you need to wait until you miss your period before you need to worry about buying a pregnancy test. You can walk or hitch a ride to a drug or grocery store and buy one. The dollar store sells test cheap and they are just as accurate as a name brand one. You could also ask a trusted friend or relative to get one for you or go to a pregnancy crisis center or clinic. They will test you for free and they can not tell your parents. Condoms do break and nothing is 100% fool proof so if this is something you and your BF will be doing a lot of I suggest you also visit and clinic and get some sort of back up BC. Look just because you are 13 doesn't mean anyone has the right to judge you. A clinic will most likely help you out for free and won't tell your parents. And why were on this subject what would your BF and parents think if you were preggo? I mean if your going to play like a big girl you need to make some big girl choices. But I am really glad to hear you all used a condom. Good luckTeens: How do I buy a pregnancy test without my parent's knowing?
Wait until you miss a period, it's way to early to test and you will definitely get a false result as a fetus won't have even started developing inside you yet. If you miss a period then go to your nearest store within walking distance and buy a test, anybody is allowed to buy a pregnancy test and there's no age restrictions. If the nearest store is within driving distance you could either get a bus or ask another family member or a friends mum to drive you there if your close. Good luck!

well I'm not a teen, but first you should wait until you miss your period. HCG levels are usually detectable after it causes you to miss a period. I'd wait until I've missed my period for a week, then take a test.


As for actually getting the test, you don't have to show an ID or anything. You might have to ask for it behind the counter, but not everywhere. Wait until you're out by yourself, walking to or from school, hanging out with friends, something like that, and just go buy one. They don't care how old you are at the store. Or maybe you have a friends older sister that you can trust that can pick one up for you, someone older that would keep your secret for you.
don't worry about buying a test right now, you need to buy the morning after pill, called Plan B. since you're under 17, you'll need a prescription for it, but planned parenthood can write you one and you can fill it at any pharmacy. here's a link to their website so that you can find a health center near you. call the number for your local center and tell them what happened, and they will help you figure out the details of where to go and how much to pay. but if you don't have the money to pay, they can get it for you for free, and they won't tell your parents. they can also figure out how to help you get to the health center and to the pharmacy to get it. if taken within five days of sex, it can reduce your chances of getting pregnant by up to 89%, but the sooner you take it, the more effective it is. and it is NOT an abortion pill. good luck.

This site will tell you the laws regarding pregnancy testing, STD testing, well woman visits and what YOUR RIGHTS are as a MINOR regarding sex. Since each state has different laws, it is crucial you find out what they laws are in your state.





Free, confidential pregnancy testing is usually available at any Title X clinic such as Planned Parenthood. (1-800-230-7526) to find the Planned Parenthood clinic nearest you. You can also walk and buy one from a Dollar General (if you have one around) they have a pregnancy test that is 1$. Buy two, take one know if you wish but you should wait two weeks take one then another two weeks and take the other. That will give you a definitive result. But then again so will missing your period. Either way, there is no way to know you are pregnant or not right now. Waiting is necessary. Or if you want, get to the pharmacy and get Plan B, that is emergency contraceptive that can be used up to 72 hours after unprotected sex or in your case a broken condom. Get someone who is 17 to go to the pharmacy and get it for you, the sooner the pills are taken the better chance of preventing a pregnancy.

my best friend who is 15 had this happen to her.i went with her and bought it for her just because i would be the 1 to take care of the baby for her because she means that much to me.





have a super super close friend go with you.you'll be ok.if you need anything else just ask im always here to give advice
walk to a drug store, and most gas stations sell them. you dont have to be a certin age to buy one but you will have to wait about 3 more weeks to take it because it will not show this early. Hope everything works out.
well, the SMART thing to do is get the morning after pill. if you bought a pregnancy test now that would be stupid because you wouldnt be able to tell this early
walk to the store. or a gas station. you cant take it for like 4 weeks anyways, so you have some time to figure it out.


I hope this makes you realize you are far too young to be having sex.
walk to the store adn buy one.. but it will not show an accurate result until it is time for your period so you cant just take it rigth away.
Just go shopping with friends or say you need to go and buy pads... Get your dad to bring you so he won't go in with you!
