Contraception Counselling

Selecting contraception surgery is a very personal matter, hinged on your health and lifestyle, plans for a family, and your preference. We at Ashirwad ENT & Maternity Hospital in Hadapsar, Pune, have a complete and confidential contraception counselling service that will assist you with making the right decisions about your reproductive health. With the professional guidance of Dr. Subhangi Bhong, we would like to give you all the required information, consider your personal needs, and help you choose the most effective and appropriate method of birth control which would suit you best.

What is the relevance of Contraception Counselling?

The contraception counselling contains more than a prescription. It involves:

• Comprehending Your Needs: Talking about the state of your current health, medical background, how often you practice sex, how many partners you have, and what fertility plans you have in the future.
• Looking at Every Possibility: Giving all the information about the different methods of contraception that are available, their effectiveness, their advantages and disadvantages, side effects and their application.
• Going Beyond Lectures: Getting and giving answers to all your questions and clearing up any myths or misconceptions you might have about birth control.
• Informed Choice-Making: Enabling you to choose in line with your circumstances, and giving you the relief that you have made the right decision.
• Long-Term Planning: Making you aware of how your method of choice integrates into your long-term reproductive health plan.
