Skip to content At Womens Health Group Chicago, we offer an array of hormonal contraceptive options to cater to different needs and lifestyles. Hormonal contraceptives are highly effective in preventing unwanted pregnancies when used correctly and consistently. These methods include birth control pills, patches, injections, vaginal rings, and implants. Each method operates by adjusting hormone levels in the body to prevent ovulation or thicken cervical mucus so as not to allow sperm penetration into the uterus. Let our team of healthcare experts guide you through your selection process.
Another sensible option for women seeking long-term contraception with minimum hassle is Long-Acting Reversible Contraceptives (LARC). LARCs such as intrauterine devices (IUDs) and implants can provide protection against pregnancy up to several years without any user maintenance after being placed professionally by a trained clinician at our clinic in Robbins’ vicinity. This form of contraception does not hamper fertility even after extended use; fertility typically returns swiftly once the device is removed.
We also present barrier contraceptive techniques here at Womens Health Group Chicago for those who prefer non-hormonal methods or want additional safety alongside other birth control choices like condoms – available in both male & female versions.The key feature these tools offer is that they create a physical barrier hindering sperms from fertilizing an egg which also includes diaphragms and cervical caps among others.
For individuals resolved on having no further children, permanent birth control measures are available. Sterilization procedures provided in Robbins’ region by Women’s Health Clinic involve minimally invasive practices like tubal ligation for females or vasectomy referrals for their male partners.These processes have negligible risk factors linked while ensuring maximal efficiency making them a viable choice to consider.
Unpredictable events can occur. Hence, in event of contraceptive failure or unprotected intercourse, rest easy knowing that Womens Health Group Chicago provides emergency contraception options for residents around Robbins’. Morning-after pills can hinder pregnancy from occurring by either inhibiting ovulation or barring the fertilized egg from implantation. These need to be taken as soon as possible after the event and are most effective when consumed within 72 hours.
If you prefer natural methods of avoiding conception without using medicines or devices into your body, Fertility awareness methods (FAMs) could be beneficial for you. They necessitate understanding the fertility cycle enabling an individual to plan unprotected sex during infertile periods.While these do involve meticulous tracking our team is here at Women’s Health Clinic ready guide clients meticulously through FAMs.
