Family Planning and Contraception in Jacksonville, FL
At Sievert and Walsh Gynecology, we understand the importance of comprehensive family planning and contraceptives in empowering individuals and couples to make informed decisions about their reproductive health.
Why Does Family Planning Matter?
Family planning is not just about preventing unintended pregnancies; it’s also about enabling individuals and couples to achieve their desired family size while ensuring the health and well-being of both parents and children. By offering comprehensive family planning services, we empower our patients to take control of their reproductive health and make choices that align with their life goals, values, and circumstances.
Our Approach
At Sievert and Walsh Gynecology, we believe in taking a holistic approach to family planning that goes beyond simply prescribing contraceptives. Our services are designed to provide thorough counseling, education, and support to help our patients make informed decisions about contraception and family planning. Whether you are considering starting a family, spacing pregnancies, or preventing pregnancy altogether, we are here to support you every step of the way.
Contraceptive Options
We offer a wide range of contraceptive options to suit the diverse needs and preferences of our patients. Our experienced gynecologists will work closely with you to assess your individual needs, discuss the available options, and help you choose the contraceptive method that best fits your lifestyle, health goals, and medical history. Some of the contraceptive options we offer include:
- Birth Control Pills: Oral contraceptives are a popular and highly effective method of preventing pregnancy when taken correctly.
- Contraceptive Implants: Long-acting reversible contraceptive implants offer up to several years of protection against pregnancy with a single, discreet insertion.
- Intrauterine Devices (IUDs): IUDs are small, T-shaped devices that are inserted into the uterus to provide long-term contraception. They are available in hormonal and non-hormonal options.
- Contraceptive Injections: Injectable contraceptives offer convenient and effective birth control that lasts for several weeks or months, depending on the specific medication.
- Barrier Methods: Barrier methods such as condoms, diaphragms, and cervical caps provide protection against pregnancy by physically blocking sperm from reaching the egg.
- Natural Family Planning: This involves careful tracking of menses and ovulation to time intercouse during non-fertile times of the cycle.
- Sterilization: For individuals or couples who have completed their family or do not wish to have children, we can discuss surgical sterilization procedures such as tubal ligation, tubal removal and vasectomy.
