Contraception: Counseling and Selection
The choice of a contraceptive method is a complex decision; medical providers have an important role in providing information and supporting patients' decision making about contraceptive methods through contraceptive counseling. We will review the goals of quality contraceptive counseling, review different approaches to this counseling and their relationship to health equity, and provide a step-by-step guide to providing high-quality, patient-centered counseling. Information specific to each contraceptive method is presented in detail separately.
With so many options out there to choose from, a little bit of contraception advice can go a long way. We’re here to help you with all your contraception questions, from working out the difference between the combined pill and mini pill and getting all the info on other contraceptive methods. Our clinicians have got your back with advice on pills, patches and rings and when you might need the morning after pill.
