Birth Control Question

okay, so I have one pack of my BP left. My dr last year wrote out the prescription for me and it was for a years worth.

Here's my problem and question: I'm DEATHLY terrified of doctors. To the point where I tend to pass out during exams. It's an awful phobia to have. In your experience, does your Dr. make you come in for an exam before writing you another prescription?

I've been procrastinating calling my Drs. office....

I have to go every 6 months too..and to be honest I think the 'whole hour wait then let me see you for 5 minutes' bothers me more than the actual exam.

Re: Birth Control Question

Not that its a good idea not to go but i know there was a study recently that said if you had consistently normal paps then you didnt need to go every year but every 3 instead. I dont know if any doctors have adopted this policy yet im sure not because they wouldnt get paid for the visits as often but if you are that bad with the exams it might be worth it to look into that and bring it up to your doctor.
