Skip to content In the interest of a woman’s autonomy and freedom, it is essential to offer choices where her health is concerned. At Womens Health Group Chicago, we provide a comprehensive suite of reproductive healthcare services, including Hormonal Contraceptives which are an effective method of preventing unplanned pregnancy. These include options such as birth control pills, patches, injections, or vaginal rings that work by controlling your hormone levels to prevent ovulation. Our team is committed to offering personalized advice tailored for each individual so you can make informed decisions about your body.
Think long-term with our Long-Acting Reversible Contraceptives (LARCs). Ideal for women who want a hassle-free approach towards family planning or wish to delay motherhood without compromising on their reproductive capacity later in life. Whether it’s intrauterine devices (IUDs) or implants under the skin – these methods give effective contraceptive cover lasting several years yet can be easily reversed when needed.
Offering surefire protection against both unwanted pregnancies as well as sexually transmitted infections (STIs), barrier contraception options are indispensible. Diaphragms, cervical caps or condoms fall under this category delivering immediate protection without any hormonal intervention involved. Equipped with vast experience and knowledge about different types of contraceptives allows us to help you find just the right fit based on your personal needs.
For those certain they don’t want future children, Womens Health Group Chicago provides options for permanent birth control like tubal ligation or essure procedures – safe and almost 100% effective ways for permanent contraception that neither involve removal nor interfere with the organ’s functioning. We take the time to understand your plans for family size and provide thorough counseling about the irreversible nature of these procedures.
Life is full of unexpected scenarios; Emergency contraception options are here precisely for those moments. Be it the morning after pill or copper IUD, they can prevent pregnancy even after you’ve had unprotected sex, giving that indispensable peace of mind. We aim to make emergency contraception accessible and easy to comprehend so women can confidently exercise their choice when conventional birth control fails.
Understanding one’s cycle is not only essential for conception but also serves as a natural method to avoid unwanted pregnancies. Fertility awareness methods like tracking menstrual cycles, temperature check and studying cervical mucus patterns help identify fertile days during each cycle thus enabling preventing or aiding pregnancy naturally. At Womens Health Group Chicago, we provide detailed individual guidance and education on these methods boosting confidence in managing reproductive health efficiently.

Yes, most women can use birth control, even if they have a medical condition. However, some types of birth control may not be right for women with certain medical conditions. It is important to talk to your doctor about your medical history and any medications you are taking before starting any type of birth control.
Yes, it is possible to get pregnant while using birth control, but it is very rare. All birth control methods have a different risk of failure. The most effective birth control methods, such as LARC methods, have a very low risk of failure.
If you think your birth control may have failed, you should take an emergency contraceptive pill (also known as the morning-after pill) as soon as possible. Emergency contraceptive pills can help to prevent pregnancy after unprotected sex or if your birth control fails.
Birth control is available from a variety of sources, including your doctor, Planned Parenthood, and other family planning clinics. Some types of birth control, such as condoms and spermicide, are available over-the-counter. Other types of birth control, such as the pill, patch, and ring, require a prescription from your doctor.
