Contraception and IUD Insertion
Our physicians offer contraceptive advice and IUD insertions. Prior to any procedure, we require a consult to discuss which for of IUD best suits your needs and review the process of insertion. We then provide you with a prescription to take to your pharmacy for pick-up prior to your insertion appointment. We do require a urine sample prior to the insertion to rule-out a pregnancy. More information can be found in the resources listed below.
