English question: Can I get contraception without my family knowing?
Privacy matters, and wanting to keep this to yourself doesn't mean anything is wrong. Many young people prefer to make these decisions quietly, and that's your right. Getting information and asking questions in private is fully possible.
Talking to our doctors is private by default. You can ask anything about methods, how to start, and what to expect, and you can start without giving your name. Nothing you ask is shared with your family.
For getting a method in person, many public health facilities and youth-friendly services in Ethiopia are set up to serve young people discreetly and respectfully, and contraception is offered free. What's stocked and how it works can vary a little by place and by method.
A good first step is to ask your questions in private, understand your options, and then decide what feels right for you. Our doctors can walk you through where to go and what to expect, at your pace, with no pressure.
You can start with a private message. It's free, and you'll hear back within a few hours. WhatsApp https://wa.me/251908182838, Telegram https://t.me/LetenaEthBot, or https://letena.letena.et/ask/.
