About Birth Control
Choosing the right birth control is a personal decision, and Garden OB/GYN is here to help you find the best option for your lifestyle and health needs. We offer the full range of contraceptive methods — from daily pills and patches to long-acting options like IUDs and implants. Our providers take the time to explain each option, discuss side effects, and help you make a confident, informed choice.
What to Expect
During your consultation, your provider will review your medical history, discuss your reproductive goals, and explain the benefits and potential side effects of each method. If you choose a method that requires placement — such as an IUD or implant — it can often be done during the same visit or scheduled at your convenience. Follow-up appointments may be recommended to ensure your chosen method is working well for you.
Who Is It For
Any woman who wants to prevent pregnancy or manage her reproductive health. Birth control consultations are appropriate for teens through menopause, and for women looking to start, switch, or stop their current method.
