Family Planning and Contraception
Family planning and contraception are essential aspects of reproductive health, enabling individuals and couples to make informed decisions about when and if they want to have children. At the Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics at City Care Hospital, our Clinic for Family Planning and Contraception offers comprehensive services tailored to meet the diverse needs of women and couples at various stages of life. We aim to provide personalized care and guidance to help you select the most suitable contraceptive options based on your lifestyle, health, and family planning goals.
Importance of Family Planning
Family planning allows individuals to take control of their reproductive health by determining the number and spacing of their children. By offering access to reliable contraceptive methods, family planning enables couples to plan for a healthy pregnancy when the time is right. It also helps reduce the risk of unintended pregnancies, improves maternal and child health outcomes, and supports women in achieving their personal and professional aspirations.
Our clinic provides expert counseling to help patients make informed decisions about contraception and family planning, ensuring they have access to the resources and information they need for optimal reproductive health.
Our Services
At our Family Planning and Contraception Clinic, we offer a range of services designed to meet the individual needs of each patient. Our experienced gynecologists and healthcare providers work closely with patients to understand their reproductive goals and recommend the best solutions for their specific circumstances.
- Contraceptive Counseling:
We provide detailed contraceptive counseling to help patients explore the different options available and choose the most effective method based on their preferences, health conditions, and lifestyle. We consider factors such as age, the number of children desired, and medical history to ensure the method selected is safe and suitable. - Long-Acting Reversible Contraception (LARC):
LARC methods are among the most effective forms of contraception and include intrauterine devices (IUDs) and contraceptive implants. These methods offer long-term protection against pregnancy, with IUDs lasting up to 10 years and implants up to 3 years. Our clinic provides both hormonal and non-hormonal IUDs, as well as contraceptive implants, offering patients reliable, low-maintenance options. - Hormonal Contraception:
We offer a variety of hormonal contraceptive methods, including:
- Birth control pills
- Contraceptive patches
- Vaginal rings
- Contraceptive injections
Hormonal contraceptives help regulate menstrual cycles, reduce menstrual pain, and prevent pregnancy by influencing hormone levels. Our healthcare providers discuss the benefits and potential side effects of each option to help patients choose the best method for their needs.
- Barrier Methods:
For those looking for non-hormonal contraception, our clinic provides guidance on the use of barrier methods such as condoms, diaphragms, and cervical caps. These methods prevent sperm from entering the uterus and can also protect against sexually transmitted infections (STIs). Barrier methods are ideal for individuals seeking short-term or occasional contraception without altering their hormone levels. - Permanent Contraception (Sterilization):
For individuals or couples who have completed their families, we offer permanent contraception options, including tubal ligation for women and referrals for vasectomy for men. Tubal ligation involves surgically blocking or cutting the fallopian tubes to prevent eggs from reaching the uterus, offering a permanent solution to contraception. - Emergency Contraception:
In cases where unprotected intercourse occurs or contraception fails, we provide emergency contraception options, such as the morning-after pill or emergency IUD insertion. These methods are designed to prevent pregnancy when used within a specific time frame after intercourse. Our team provides timely care and support for patients in need of emergency contraception. - Fertility Awareness and Natural Methods:
For individuals interested in non-medical, natural methods of family planning, we offer education on fertility awareness-based methods (FABMs). These methods involve tracking menstrual cycles, monitoring ovulation signs, and using periods of abstinence or barrier methods during fertile windows to prevent pregnancy. Our clinic provides detailed instruction and support for patients wishing to use natural family planning techniques.
