r/PlannedParenthood

Just a little additional information:

I'm currently 6 weeks

I have not seen an actual physician in several years. All of my annual exams and paps have been with the APRN that is at the office I've been going to for 10 years; My gynecologist switched from general gynecology to being an endometriosis specialist about 6 years ago, so I haven't seen her since then.

The office wants me to see a physician for my prenatal care, not just an APRN, since I'm considered high risk. But the office doesn't have a permanent physician right now they're in the process of hiring one. They said they're anticipating having someone permanent in August.

This is my first pregnancy and because I'm high risk I'm just really worried and want to make sure that this pregnancy is viable and that I haven't had a silent miscarriage or anything.

So I guess I'm just asking if planned Parenthood will do that one scan ultrasound for me? My husband has been trying to calm me down and ease my anxiety but I don't think anything will.

I need to get annual exam, pap, testing and lost my insurance when I lost my job about 2 years ago. I checked planned parenthood and they said $280+ for these services. Any recommendations for low
Cost options? I have no issues and don’t anticipate any problems but it’s been too long…

I had an abortion at the end of March/beginning on April through a clinic in VA. My state doesn’t allow abortions. I took the pills. I still haven’t started my period. My breast are still extremely sore. I have no sex drive. I want to follow up with a OBGYN to see what is going on. I don’t want to go to my reg OB and say I had a miscarriage because I feel like it will be sus considering I never went to her to confirm I was pregnant. Am I able to follow up with a planned parenthood in my state (even though it isn’t legal) and say I had an abortion? Or should I go back to VA? I want to be safe rather than sorry

My appointment to hopefully get testosterone is on July 19, and I'm wondering what the process is like and what I should be prepared for. I live in the Pennsylvania area and I've heard people say that they got it easily, and some say that it took them years. I'm wondering what it was like and wanted to hear more experiences, hopefully from people in my state.

21F and partner 26M we have 2 children ages 1&3 together already living in temporary accommodation due to having to leave home because other family members was making it unsafe to live in….

I’m have very recently found out I’m pregnant and very unsure on what to do and how to feel,
Part of me knows that the timing isn’t the best and our financial situation hasn’t been the best and we are still trying to find our feet from helping my partner come out of debt and making life liveable again …
Then part of me thinks that we was in the same situation with our 2nd child and we managed to make it work for me and she fit in like she was always ment to be and I hate to think that I will be ending the life of a child when i have the love and time to give, because i had the love to give when i thought i didn’t and i had no idea what motherhood entailed and i dived deep head first into it blindsided, i now know what to expect and how to go about the small& big things,
If I can love my 2 babies, why would this baby be any different…
The only thing thats making me question the pregnancy is guilt for my 2babies i have already and my mental health and postpartum as I suffered really bad with my 2nd I don’t want to fall into a trap and the baby would be due around my oldest 4th birthday

Any help, advice or experiences would be greatly appreciated plz be kind 🤣

Has anyone gotten Botox at the Redwood City planned parenthood? I just saw they started offering aesthetics there and wondering how the experience was.
