ABSTRACT

You see a 13-year-old girl for a sprained ankle. As you are examining her, she asks if you can prescribe the contraceptive pill for her. She tells you she has been in a relationship with a 35-year-old man for nearly 2 months. The relationship has had some sexual activity already, but she now feels ready for full intercourse. Her ‘boyfriend’ is reluctant to use condoms, hence her request.
