We provide a comprehensive contraception service.

In-depth advice is available about the wide array of contraceptive options available to women and men. These include  

  • Contraceptive pills,  

  • Injections,  

  • Barrier methods (condoms – male and female, diaphragms),  

  • Implants (Implanon) 

  • Intra-uterine devices (Mirena, copper coils),

  • Long-term devices (patch, vaginal ring),  

  • Permanent solutions (referral for male or female sterilisation).  These procedures require referral onwards to a specialist.  

The doctor will discuss these options in detail with you to help decide which is most suitable for you. 

We are also happy to advise regarding crisis pregnancy options.
