Family Planning

A trip to the family planning clinic is a must for any sexually active person. If used correctly, then most contraception is up to 99% effective. The most important factors are effectiveness and safety.

A family planning clinic in Melbourne is ready to handle any issue

These usually involve contraception, fertility, planning, and the avoidance diagnosis of STIs (sexually transmitted infections). There are numerous issues that our family planning specialists deal with on a daily basis in our Era Health clinic in Melbourne.

Find out if something will affect your contraception

The family planning clinic is also available to help you with unexpected events, such as warning you when a certain medication or substance may affect your contraception. There are even times when illness, travel, and stress can affect your contraception; they can certainly affect your fertility too. Emergency contraception is available, as is help for newly pregnant women.

No side effects with contraception

There should not be any side effects to contraceptive planning. You may experience side effects with some forms of contraception, but the aim is to find various means of preventing fertilization (and STIs) without side effects and whilst ensuring it is as effective as possible. Part of this process involves educating patients about how to correctly use contraception.

There is a natural family planning option.

There are even natural family planning methods that are currently acceptable to all cultures and faiths. There are some techniques a woman or man may use, where once they are mastered, the man or woman may no longer need to visit the family planning clinic about contraceptive issues again.
