I know I have herpes and need to get the right medical treatment but of course this isn't going to happen unless I'm officially diagnosed. I want to go to my local planned parenthood to get swab tested, but , is it free? Is the medication free? If im under 18 do I have to have a legal adult?
where abouts are you ?
You might want to call them to verify if it's free testing for herpes. I know places will do free std screenings but herpes is an sti. Also, i know in some states you don't need legal guardian permission to be tested.

If you are looking for free herpes testing, you can get tested at CDC. Here is the link to their website
