    If you have planned parenthood in Washington DC, they are giving out free insurance for all of that. But thats if Washington has planned parenthood. You just need to bring I.D., SS Card, Proof of Address, and an Original Birth certificate.... I hope that helps

    there should be a planned parenthood or other type of facility that provides, if not free then for a small donation or fee, birth control pills.

    For instance:

    Planned Parenthood Federate

    1120 Connecticut Avenue Northwest, Washington, DC 20036

    http://www.plannedparenthood.org/

    you might want to call and see if they have a discounted pill package they can offer you.

    Planned Parenthood, when I had no insurance I got my birth control for free, they just told me I can make a donation or something if I wanted.. but other than the donation(which i got to pick how much money i wanted to give) it was free..

    Planned Parenthood. If you prove you have no income you may get them for a discount. The only free birth control is to not have sex.

    Go to Planned Parenthood, or another agency like that. No insurance needed.

    Have you sought out your local Family Planning Clinic?

    They normally offer various free forms of birth control or alternatives at low-cost.

    Find a county health department. They usually can offer you pills at a discount.

    Look into Mirena IUC's. They last 5 years, if you are really serious about not getting pregnant.

    Um, can't you go to the Health Department?

    You can get free pills there, I think.

    And to the lady who suggested Mirena....

    It costs like 500 dollars without insurance.

    see if there is a planned parenthood in your neighborhood. if your in college, most prescribe for a small fee. check with your school nurse, she would know where to go

    if your super desperate you could look online for pharmacies.... never tried that, but i suggest getting a check out before you get any prescriptions.

    Planned Parenthood. They have a bill you later program too, if you don't currently have the cash for it.
