Understanding Consent and Privacy in Teen Gynecology Care

Navigating healthcare with teens can feel tricky — but at Be. Women’s Health in Frisco, TX, we prioritize transparency, safety, and respect.

What parents should know:

1. Teens deserve privacy.
We encourage a few minutes alone with the provider so teens feel safe asking questions.

2. Parents are still part of the care team.
We invite you into the conversation, with your teen’s consent, to ensure everyone feels informed and supported.

3. Consent matters.
Teens always know what will happen during a visit — nothing is done without explanation or permission.

4. Pelvic exams are rare.
They are performed only if necessary, and only with the teen’s comfort and consent.

5. Mental health questions are normal.
Hormones affect mood — we ask about sleep, stress, and emotions because they matter.

Our goal is to help teens feel safe, heard, and empowered — while helping parents feel confident and included.
