Long acting contraceptives are generally more reliable than pills as you don’t need to remember to take them every day. They are a great choice for people who don’t want a baby in the near future. We offer a choice of different methods.
Coils
We can help with both IUS and IUD coils. They are a small plastic device which is inserted into the womb through the cervix. It takes around 20 minutes. Intrauterine system coils (IUS) release a small amount of progesterone and last up to 8 years. Intrauterine devices (IUD) contain a small amount of copper and last between 5-10 years.

Oral
The combined pill and the progestogen-only pill are taken by mouth every day. They are very effective when taken correctly, but you can lose protection if you miss a pill, are sick or take some other medicines. Ask us which pill suits you, and what to do if you miss one.
Implants
A small plastic rod is inserted under the skin of your upper arm under local anaesthetic. The implant slowly releases the hormone progesterone. The implant works for up to 5 years.
