Choosing contraception is a personal decision. At Springwood Mall Medical Centre, your doctor can help you explore options that suit your health, preferences and plans for pregnancy.
Discuss your contraception options
Whether you are starting contraception or reviewing your current method, your doctor can explain:
- Hormonal and non-hormonal options.
- How different methods work and their effectiveness.
- Possible side effects, risks and suitability.
- Next steps for starting, changing or stopping a method.
Options for discussion include pills, condoms, injections, contraceptive implants and intrauterine devices (IUDs). Your doctor will consider your medical history and current medicines when advising you.
Contraceptive implant procedures
Contraceptive implant insertion, removal and replacement are available with Dr Megan, Dr Sai and Dr May, subject to assessment. Contact reception to arrange the appropriate appointment.
Preparing for your appointment
You do not need to choose a method beforehand. Bring your questions and a list of medicines you take. A procedure may require a separate appointment.
