Contraceptive Methods We Offer

1. Oral Contraceptive Pills

What They Are: Daily pills containing hormones (either a combination of estrogen and progestin or progestin-only) that prevent ovulation and alter cervical mucus.
Key Benefits:
- High efficacy when taken as prescribed.
- Regulates menstrual cycles and may reduce acne.
- Non-invasive and reversible.
Considerations:
- Requires daily adherence.
- May cause side effects such as nausea, weight changes, or mood fluctuations.
- Not suitable for women with certain health conditions (e.g., history of blood clots).

2. Intrauterine Devices (IUDs)

What They Are: Small, T-shaped devices inserted into the uterus that provide long-term contraception (up to 5–10 years depending on the type).
Key Benefits:
- Very effective with a low failure rate.
- Minimal maintenance once inserted.
- Option available in hormonal and non-hormonal (copper) types.
Considerations:
- Requires a minor in-office procedure for insertion.
- May cause initial spotting or cramping.
- Periodic follow-up is recommended to ensure proper placement.

3. Contraceptive Injections

What They Are: Hormonal injections (usually containing progestin) administered every 3 months to prevent ovulation.
Key Benefits:
- Provides effective contraception without daily or weekly attention.
- May reduce menstrual bleeding and cramps.
- Reversible with fertility returning soon after discontinuation.
Considerations:
- Requires scheduled injections every 12 weeks.
- Some women may experience weight gain or changes in mood.
- Not ideal for those who prefer not to have injections regularly.

4. Contraceptive Implants

What They Are: Small, flexible rods inserted under the skin of the upper arm that release hormones continuously over a period of up to 3–5 years.
Key Benefits:
- Highly effective and long-term.
- Does not require daily attention.
- Rapid reversal of effects once removed.
Considerations:
- Insertion and removal require minor surgical procedures.
- Possible side effects include irregular bleeding, headaches, or acne.
