You may be able to receive medical attention based on the laws in your state. Try Googling the name of your state and “medical treatment for STI without parental consent.” Also, you can contact a clinic and ask the receptionist about this or ask to speak with someone who might be able to answer your question. Finally, please consider talking to your Mom. She may have preferred that you remain abstinent, but ultimately she may turn out to be your best support during this scary time. Good luck and stay healthy. (This is information only – not legal advice.)
