HOW WE PRESCRIBE BIRTH CONTROL

Reproductive health shouldn't be complicated.

When it comes to birth control, you have a ton of options. From traditional birth control pills to implants and IUDs, there are many ways you can manage your reproductive health. During your telehealth visit, we'll discuss your goals with birth control - whether that's simply pregnancy prevention, auxiliary benefits, or a combination - and help you decide on the best form of contraceptive for you. If your method requires an in-person visit, such as an IUD or arm implant placement, we'll help you arrange the proper care. If it's a prescription, we'll send it straight to your pharmacy - simple as that.
