Contraception
A woman is fertile as early as 5 days after an abortion and can get pregnant again if contraception is not used. There are lots of methods of contraception to choose from.... don’t be put off if the first type isn’t quite right for you; you can try another method. Many contraceptives are over 99% effective if used correctly.
There are various types of contraceptive methods. The most effective of these is the contraceptive implant, followed by the contraceptive coil, injectable contraceptives, oral contraceptive pills and condoms.
All these methods are available from NUPAS and as part of our service we will discuss options and provide you with contraception. We will help you make plans for your long term contraception use.
For more information about contraception see our website: www.nupas.co.uk, visit your GP or nurse, a local contraception and sexual health service or specialist clinic like Brook.
