Contraception Q&A
What is contraception?
Contraception, or birth control, refers to methods used to prevent pregnancy. At Diamond Touch, we provide expert consultations to help you make informed decisions about the best contraception method for your health and family planning goals.
We offer contraception services for women of all ages, including specialized adolescent care for teens exploring safe and effective options.
What are the types of contraception?
There are various types of contraception, each with unique benefits and effectiveness levels. Common options include:
-
Sterilization: A permanent method of birth control involving surgical procedures, such as tubal ligation, for women who no longer plan to have children.
-
Long-acting reversible contraception (LARC): Implant devices, such as hormonal implants and intrauterine devices (IUDs), that provide pregnancy prevention for 3-10 years.
-
Short-acting hormonal birth control: Options include pills, hormone shots, patches, and vaginal rings, which work by stopping ovulation or blocking sperm.
-
Barrier methods: Includes condoms, diaphragms, and cervical caps, which physically prevent sperm from reaching the egg.
It’s important to note that most birth control methods don’t protect against sexually transmitted diseases (STDs). For sexually active individuals with multiple partners, combining barrier methods with other contraception options is often recommended.
What can I expect during a contraception consultation?
Your consultation at Diamond Touch begins with a comprehensive evaluation of your gynecological and sexual health. Stacy Grissett and her team will:
-
Discuss your medical history and family planning goals.
-
Provide detailed information about all contraception options.
-
Work with you to select the method that best suits your lifestyle and preferences.
In most cases, a pelvic exam is not required during your consultation.
