Answers:
Technically he or she could report it, yes!. Medical professionals are mandated to report statutory crimes and/or abuse!. You are so close to the age of consent he may be more concerned with birth control and preventing STDs than reporting your boyfriend!. Trust me, you are by far not the only girl your age having sex!. Your doctor sees it all the time!. Do you think you are obligated to tell him how old your boyfriend is!? Why is it relevant!? It's really between you and your parents!. Do they know you are involved with an 18 year old!? Do you have their consent!? I'm not certain your doctor would prescribe birth control without your parent's awareness that he or she is doing so!. I think you should talk to your mom!. I am fortunate that my daughters have always been open with me!. I also understand not all moms are the same and it may be difficult for you to approach her!. But because you are a minor you need to!. I think she'd rather see you protect yourself than make a mistake that you may have to live with the rest of your life!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Why would you tell the doctor your partner's age!? And why have sex at 15!? You're too young and you're just begging for a teenage pregnancy!. The youngest legal age to consent to sex in any state is 16, but it also depends on the state!.
Also, it doesn't matter if you even gave consent if you're underaged!. He can be arrested for rape since he's no longer a minor and he had sex with someone below the age of consent!. The law can force you two to break up if they find out you had sex!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

The doctor would not arrest you, but by law he or she would be obligated to report it to the authorities and the parents of the 15yr!. old!. The 18yr old would by law have to be arrested!.
If this is you, please talk to your parents!. HIV, Aids, Herpes,these things are real and penicillin cannot cure it!. Treat your body with love, it for just anyone to use!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
