State laws vary, but a common example of a health service to which minors can consent without parental permission is reproductive health services, such as pregnancy prevention and contraception. For instance, in many states including California and Minnesota, minors may consent to pregnancy-related care and contraception services on their own, without the need for parental approval.

To provide one concrete example: In Minnesota, state laws allow minors to consent to health care services related to pregnancy and pregnancy prevention, sexually transmitted infections, mental health care, and substance use treatment without requiring parental permission.

Thus, a typical example is that a minor may consent to contraceptive services or pregnancy-related care by themselves under state law.
