How private is my conversation with the doctor?

What you tell your doctor is between you and them. They are not allowed to tell anyone, even your parents, unless you say so! There are a few exceptions. For example, if you say:

• Someone is hurting you

• You might hurt someone or yourself

• You're 15 or younger and have an older sex partner (especially a much older one)...they may need to tell someone to keep you safe. 

Questions? Ask your doctor!
