Skip to content At Womens Health Group Chicago, we understand the unique health needs of women, and are committed to providing comprehensible birth control options. Hormonal contraceptives come in various forms such as pills, patches, injections or vaginal rings that release hormones into a woman’s body to prevent pregnancy. They are safe and highly effective if used correctly. Our team is experienced in guiding patients through their contraceptive choices to ensure they understand how hormonal contraceptives work and which type might suit them best.
Our clinic prioritizes giving every woman access to an extensive range of birth control methods. Long-Acting Reversible Contraceptive (LARC) options such as intrauterine devices(IUDs) or under-the-skin implants can provide long-term prevention against unplanned pregnancies. One significant advantage of LARCs is convenience; once inserted by our skilled staff you won’t have to worry about daily or even monthly contraception – it’s hassle-free!
At Womens Health Group Chicago, we aim for inclusivity offering classic barrier method types like condoms (both male and female versions), diaphragms, cervical caps and sponge. These types of contraception function by physically blocking sperm from reaching an egg. Barrier methods offer non-hormonal means of preventing unwanted conception while simultaneously decreasing the risk of sexually transmitted diseases.
We respect your individual preferences on family planning which includes permanent birth control solutions. For eligible clients certain procedures like tubal ligation (‘getting tubes tied’) or vasectomy can be performed with expert care at our facility. These procedures serve virtually irreversible protection against future pregnancies desiring a definitive solution_end user will see thoughtful discussion around this step vital before going ahead with treatment.
We put our patients first at Womens Health Group Chicago, providing accessible emergency contraception when conventional methods have failed or in the event of unprotected sex. The “morning-after” pill and copper IUD are both viable options for preventing conception after such incidents occur. We assure swift appointment scheduling since time is a heavily weighted factor in their effectiveness.
Understanding your own body cycle can be an empowering experience. Our fertility specialists share this belief guiding you on natural methods like Fertility Awareness-Based Methods (FABMs). These hinge on monitoring different fertility signals during menstrual cycles to gain insight into ‘safe’ and ‘risky’ periods that potentially lead either to pregnancy prevention or achieving desired conception. We offer regular classes and consultations aimed developing more accurate understanding of individual’s reproductive health.

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.

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.
