Online Birth Control Services for Teens
Here are some services that can prescribe to minors:
Services That Work with Teens
Nurx
- Serves patients as young as 12 in many states
- Requires parental consent in some states depending on local laws
- Offers pills, patch, ring, and emergency contraception
Planned Parenthood Direct (app)
- Available in select states
- Familiar, trusted organization with experience serving teens
- May vary by state on age requirements
Hey Jane
- Works with teens in supported states
- Straightforward intake process
Important Things to Know
- State laws vary significantly - some states allow minors to consent to contraceptive care independently (like California, New York), while others require parental consent
- Most services will check your state's specific rules during signup
- Telehealth platforms connected to local clinics (like Planned Parenthood) may be most reliable for navigating minor consent laws
Recommendation
Nurx is probably the most established for this use case, but Planned Parenthood Direct may offer more peace of mind given their long history serving young patients.
You can also call a local Planned Parenthood to ask about telehealth options specific to your state.
