    That’s how you fucking die because the doctor didn’t know enough of your medical history.

    Doctor: “Are you allergic to anything?”

    Person: “I have a few allergies but nothing you should worry about, please fill my prescriptions now”.

    Also I’m pretty sure a doctor knowing when you go on your period can be important when prescribing birth control.

      If the state decides to punish people for having allergies and to violate medical confidentiality to force doctors to report these people - you wouldn’t want to tell your doctor about your allergies either.

      not really. typically birth control is prescribed with instructions on when to start in relation to your period. they don’t need to know the exact date.
