Deciding on the right contraceptive method can be a daunting task for many women. With various options available, it’s important to find one that suits your lifestyle, health, and future plans.
Here at Duality Health, we have put together this guide to contraception, including the popular contraceptive coil, to help you make an informed decision.
Contraception is not one-size-fits-all. Options range from daily pills to long-term solutions like the contraceptive coil. Each method has its own benefits and considerations, including effectiveness, ease of use, and potential side effects. It’s crucial to understand the different types of contraception available to determine which is most suitable for you.
The contraceptive coil, also known as an intrauterine device (IUD), is a small, T-shaped device inserted into the uterus. It’s a highly effective, long-term contraceptive method that can last for several years.
The contraceptive coil is a popular choice for many reasons. It’s a ‘fit and forget’ method, meaning once it’s inserted, you don’t have to think about contraception daily. It’s also reversible, so fertility returns quickly after removal. There can also potentially be additional benefits, such as lighter periods and reduced menstrual cramps.
At Duality Health, coil insertion is performed by experienced healthcare professionals in a comfortable and private setting. Our team provides a thorough consultation to discuss your medical history, answer any questions, and ensure the coil is the right choice for you. The procedure is quick, and we offer follow-up care to monitor your well-being.
