Personal preferences regarding hormones and long-term options
Together, we'll create a plan that fits your goals and comfort level.
Birth Control Options We Offer
Birth Control Pills
Oral contraceptives are a popular option for many teens and young women. They can help regulate periods, reduce cramping, improve acne, and prevent pregnancy when taken consistently.
Nexplanon®
Nexplanon is a small implant placed under the skin of the upper arm that provides highly effective pregnancy prevention for up to several years. We provide both insertion and removal services in the office.
Intrauterine Devices (IUDs)
IUDs are among the most effective forms of reversible birth control available. Depending on the type selected, they can provide long-term pregnancy prevention and may also help reduce menstrual bleeding and cramping.
We offer IUD counseling, insertion, and removal in a supportive environment.
Other Contraceptive Options
We also discuss additional methods including contraceptive patches, vaginal rings, depo-provera injections, condoms, and fertility awareness methods to help patients understand all available choices.
Birth Control Isn’t Just for Pregnancy Prevention
Many young women seek contraception for reasons beyond preventing pregnancy.
Hormonal birth control may help manage:
Painful periods
Heavy menstrual bleeding
Irregular cycles
Acne
Symptoms associated with PCOS (now PMOS)
Premenstrual symptoms
We'll discuss whether birth control may be an appropriate part of your treatment plan and answer any questions you may have.
