Implanon Insertion

Implanon is a type of long-acting reversible contraception (LARC) that provides effective birth control for up to three years. The Implanon implant is a small, flexible rod inserted under the skin of the upper arm by a trained healthcare professional. It releases a steady, low dose of hormones to prevent ovulation and reduce the likelihood of pregnancy. The insertion procedure is quick, minimally invasive, and performed with local anesthesia to ensure your comfort. Implanon is a convenient option for those seeking a long-term, hassle-free contraceptive solution.

IUCD (Intrauterine Contraceptive Device)

The IUCD, or intrauterine device, is a small, T-shaped device inserted into the uterus to prevent pregnancy. Available in hormonal and non-hormonal (copper) forms, the IUCD is a highly effective, long-term contraceptive option. The hormonal IUCD releases progestin to thicken cervical mucus and thin the uterine lining, while the copper IUCD creates an environment hostile to sperm. The insertion process is quick and typically performed in our clinic with minimal discomfort. IUCDs can provide contraception for several years and are easily removable if you decide to conceive or switch methods.

Oral Contraceptive Pill

The Oral Contraceptive Pill, commonly known as the birth control pill, is a popular and effective method of contraception. It contains synthetic hormones (estrogen and/or progestin) that prevent ovulation and regulate your menstrual cycle. We offer a range of oral contraceptive options, including combined and progestin-only pills, tailored to your specific health needs and preferences. Our healthcare professionals will guide you in selecting the most suitable pill, provide instructions for use, and address any questions or concerns you may have about this method.

IM Depo (Depo-Provera Injection)

The IM Depo, or Depo-Provera injection, is a long-acting hormonal contraceptive administered as an intramuscular injection every three months. It contains progestin, which prevents ovulation and thickens cervical mucus to prevent sperm from reaching the egg. The injection is a convenient option for those who prefer not to take daily pills or have other long-term contraceptive needs. Our healthcare providers will ensure that the injection is administered properly and provide guidance on managing potential side effects.
