Get Tested Will my parents know If I get tested?

In general, minors do not need parental consent to get tested for sexually transmitted diseases. However, there may be certain locations where, for one reason or another, the provider may request parental permission. Call your provider, clinic or AIDS hotline before you go for your test and ask if parental permission is required.
