Birth Control Services in Addison Illinois

Hormonal Contraceptives

At Womens Health Group Chicago, we offer comprehensive services and guidance on various birth control methods. One of our most preferred options is Hormonal Contraceptives. This category includes the pill, patch, injection or implant that work by altering a woman’s hormonal balance to inhibit ovulation thus preventing pregnancy. Every method may carry different side effects and effectiveness rates, which is why our expert team takes time to explain each in-depth during your consultation for you to make an informed decision.

Long-acting Reversible Contraceptives

One innovative offering from our clinic in Addison is Long-Acting Reversible Contraceptives (LARCs). This birth control solution comprises intrauterine devices (IUDs) and subdermal contraceptive implants. LARC’s high efficacy rate combined with less reliance on regular user involvement makes it a popular choice among modern women who want long-term protection without further commitments.

Barrier Methods

For those seeking non-hormonal means of contraception, Womens Health Group Chicago also offers Barrier Methods as safe and effective alternative solutions for family planning needs in Addison. These include condoms, diaphragms or cervical caps – physical barriers designed primarily to prevent sperm from entering the uterus during intercourse. Here at Women’s Health Group Chicago, we believe that understanding all available options enables women to take charge of their reproductive health confidently.

Permanent Birth Control

We understand commitment—it lies at the heart of everything we do at Women’s Health Group Chicago—which is why we provide Permanent Birth Control procedures such as tubal ligation for women utterly certain about ending their fertility journey. Known informally as getting your “tubes tied,” this procedure provides reliable prevention against unplanned pregnancies—empowering you with secured peace-of-mind.

Emergency Contraception

At Womens Health Group Chicago, we see to it that Addison-based women are prepared for any situation—which is why we offer Emergency Contraception. Whether an occasional method like morning-after pills or a more invasive option such as a copper IUD—we’re here to discuss the most appropriate solution should regular contraception fail or was not used.

Fertility Awareness Methods

Empowering women with knowledge about their bodies’ natural rhythms forms part of our profound commitment at Women’s Health Group Chicago. Fertility Awareness Methods (FAMs), or Natural Family Planning, involve tracking menstrual cycles to identify fertile days and plan —or avoid—pregnancy accordingly. We provide resources and education needed for successfully implementing these track-and-observe techniques in your daily life in Addison.
