Answers:
No, in fact the doctor shouldn't tell them anything unless you tell him/her that it's ok. Also, when you call to make the appointment you can ask them to make a note in your chart in case your parents go with you and you don't want to mention this with them standing right beside you. There is also an immunization to help prevent hpv. You should ask about it while you are there.
