Skip to content Welcome to Womens Health Group Chicago, your reliable health partner in South Chicago Heights. We understand every woman has unique contraceptive needs, and our dedicated team of professionals is committed to personalized, compassionate care. Among the services we offer are hormonal contraceptives which include birth control pills, patches, injections and vaginal rings. These types of contraception work by regulating hormones in your body to prevent pregnancy. They’re highly effective when used correctly and can also help manage a variety of menstrual issues from PMS symptoms to painful periods.
As part of our comprehensive range of birth control options at Womens Health Group Chicago, long-acting reversible contraceptives (LARCs) are an increasingly popular choice for women in South Chicago Heights who want dependable and longer-term prevention against unplanned pregnancies. LARCs like intrauterine devices (IUDs) and implants provide protection that lasts years while being completely reversible should you decide it’s time to start or expand your family.
At Womens Health Group Chicago we acknowledge that not all women may be comfortable with hormonal or invasive methods of contraception. Barrier methods such as condoms, diaphragms or cervical caps can be an alternative solution for many women in South Chicago Heights seeking temporary but immediate birth control measures without long-term commitments or hormone manipulation.
For those sure they do not wish to have more children down the road or any at all, permanent birth control options can be discussed at Women’s Health Group Chicago offering safety, freedom and peace-of-mind over accidental pregnancies without interfering with your natural hormones catchall levels like other forms do.. Permanent methods such as tubal ligation give assurance towards infallibility against unwanted conception permanently.
Womens Health Group Chicago is dedicated to ensuring every woman in South Chicago Heights has access to contraception when they need it most. Our services include emergency contraception which can prevent a pregnancy after unprotected sex or contraceptive failure. Whether you require a morning-after pill or a copper IUD, we are here to address your concerns, highlight all options available and guide you through what can be an emotionally fraught process.
Familiarity with your menstrual cycle is an advantageous skill for family planning as well as disease early-detection indicators. At Women’s Health Group Chicago, we’re devoted in yoking fertility awareness methods into our routine patient approach towards women’s care within the South Chicago Heights community. This comprehension of physical symptom cognizance together with timed testing enables better control over decisions involving birth control and other essential health considerations unique to women only.

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.
