Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Sexually active teenagers should be encouraged by their providers to be tested for STDs. Many do not want to be tested, as they fear that their parents will find out. In most areas, providers may perform testing of STDs without parental consent; however, each state may have its own guidelines as to where and when this is appropriate. Providers should find out the regulations and guidelines for their area and properly guide their teenage patients.
