By age 17 it is certainly time for your first gyn exam. I am glad that you are aware of your risk factors because simply knowing about them makes it more likely that you will either sidestep them or discover problems early. Yes, you can ask for a prescription for birth control at that visit. It is often helpful to be seeing a doctor who is accessible because it is not unusual to have to adjust the pill you are on initially.
