What are my births control options and where to get birth control?

Today, the options are almost endless. The right method depends on your lifestyle, your body, and your future plans. A few of the most widely used birth controls methods include:

  • Hormonal methods: The pill, the patch, the ring
  • Depo-Provera injections
  • IUDs (intrauterine devices)
  • Contraceptive implant

Is birth controls right for me?

As is the case with practically all medications, births control isn’t for everyone. If you’ve dealt with any of the following health issues, birth controls might not be a good idea:

  • Blood clots: An inherited blood-clotting disorder, or vein inflammation
  • Breast cancer
  • Diabetes or liver disease
  • Heart attack, stroke, angina, or other serious heart problems
  • High blood pressure
  • Migraine headaches with aura (seeing flashing, zigzag lines)

Contact Us and Speak with one of SWHC’s providers about your risks and health problems. They can help you decide which birth control methods are safe and best for you.
