Understanding Contraceptive Options:

Contraception plays a crucial role in family planning and women’s reproductive health. Various methods are available to suit different preferences, medical histories, and lifestyles. At Dr. Swathi Women’s Clinic, we provide a wide range of contraceptive options to help women make informed choices about their reproductive health. Here are some commonly used methods:

Oral Contraceptives (Birth Control Pills):

Combination Pills: Contain both estrogen and progestin to prevent ovulation and alter cervical mucus, reducing the risk of pregnancy.

Progestin-Only Pills (Mini Pills):
Ideal for women who cannot take estrogen-containing pills.

Contraceptive Patch:

A small patch applied to the skin that releases hormones to prevent ovulation.Worn weekly for three weeks, followed by a patch-free week.

Contraceptive Ring: A flexible ring inserted into the vagina that releases hormones to prevent pregnancy. Worn for three weeks, followed by a ring-free week.

Intrauterine Devices (IUDs):

Hormonal IUDs: Release progestin to prevent ovulation and thicken cervical mucus.
Copper IUDs: Create an environment hostile to sperm, preventing fertilization.

Contraceptive Injection (Depo-Provera):

A progestin injection administered every three months to prevent ovulation.

Barrier Methods:

Male and Female Condoms: Physical barriers that prevent sperm from reaching the egg.
Diaphragm: A silicone cup placed over the cervix before intercourse, used with spermicide.
