Answers:
By your rights they can't if you don't want them to- unless you describe problems you have that relate to 'down there', then they'd need to check for problems!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
nope!.!.!.unless you've had sex!.I'm a virgin, and I went to the doctor and asked for birth control and the only reason I got checked out down there was because I had pelvic pain!.!.!.!.and the only reason they would stick 'a cold metal stick up your crotch' would be if youre sexually active, for a pap smear!. so if youre not sexually active i think you have nothing to worry about (:Www@Answer-Health@Com
There are doctors who don't do a pelvic exam, but it is in your best interest to get one!. It can be unpleasant but it is better to know for sure that everything is ok!. I myself would not go to a doctor who did not do an exam because it shows that they don't care about your health!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Pap tests and/or pelvic exams are NOT a clinical requirement for birth control pills, no matter if you've had sex or not!.
You absolutely do not need a pap smear to get birth control pills, but you may have to be very clear and firm about it!. (Print this answer and the source links out and take it all with you to your appointment!. If that doesn't work, get a new doctor!) Pelvic exams and pap tests, though they may be useful in their own right, do not have ANYTHING AT ALL to do with whether it's safe for a woman to use hormonal birth control!. There is NOTHING a pelvic exam or pap test commonly detect that would prevent you from using hormonal birth control!. The most important things someone can check before prescribing birth control are your blood pressure and your family history of stroke!.
Neither the US Food and Drug Administration, the World Health Organization,Planned Parenthood Association, or the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists believe that a pelvic exam or pap smear should be required for hormonal birth control!. According to WHO,a pelvic exam for contraceptives (including monthly injectables) is a Category C!. That is "does not contribute substantially to the safe and effective use of the contraceptive method!."
You do not need a pelvic exam or parental permission to get hormonal birth control at most Planned Parenthood clinics!. They have a program called HOPE (Hormonal Options without Pelvic Exam) created specifically for women who want birth control without a pelvic exam or pap smear:
"Women's health clinicians may prescribe hormonal methods of birth control without requiring a pelvic exam!. At Planned Parenthood health centers, this service is called HOPE
