At Womens Health Group Chicago, we understand the importance of providing all-encompassing healthcare to the women of Whiting. Our range of birth control options includes hormonal contraceptives which effectively prevent pregnancy by regulating your menstrual cycle and limiting egg release from ovaries. We offer birth control methods like oral contraceptive pills, patches, injections and vaginal rings. Our experts will guide you through each method’s effectiveness, potential side effects, benefits beyond contraception, and help you choose a hormonal contraceptive that best suits your lifestyle.
Considering something long term? Long-acting reversible contraceptives might be an ideal choice for you. LARCs such as intrauterine devices(IUDs) or implants provide effective protection against pregnancy without needing frequent attention or maintenance. They’re safe for most women and can last anywhere between 3 to 10 years based on type chosen – perfect fit if you wish to delay starting a family. At Womens Health Group Chicago, our professionals take time in understanding patient needs closely before suggesting the right LARC method.
We at Womens Health Group Chicago believe in tailoring contraception care to suit individual needs and promoting freedom of choice to every woman in Whiting area. Barrier methods form one part of that wide selection basket! Functioning by physically preventing sperm from meeting an egg they include condoms(diaphragm), cervical caps among others. Apart from its high convenience factor due to non-prescription nature,it also provides added benefit of protecting against sexually transmitted diseases(STDs).
For those certain about not having any more children ever again , permanent birth control is another option we offer here at Women’s Health Group clinic . Known medically as sterilization , these surgical procedures like tubal ligations or hysterectomy, provide permanent and irreversible prevention of pregnancy. Our experienced healthcare professionals are here to guide you through the process while supporting your decision with empathy & care.
Life can be unpredictable and so does our need for effective birth control measure at times. Should there arise a situation where regular methods haven’t been employed, Emergency contraception has you covered. This ‘Plan B’ – over-the-counter pill taken within 72 hours of unprotected sex greatly reduces chance of getting pregnant. At Womens Health Group Chicago ,our team stands by during these crucial times providing expert advice ensuring best support to Whiting’s women.
If hormonal contraceptives or devices aren’t right for you, we also recommend Fertility Awareness Methods (FAMs) as natural alternatives. These rely on tracking menstrual cycles and establishing fertile days in order to avoid conception naturally without side effects often associated with other contraceptive means.It may seem daunting initially but fear not! With appropriate guidance from our proficient doctors in understanding body patterns monthly, most women have successfully implemented this method managing their reproductive health perfectly well.
