Frequently asked questions
Which contraceptive method is best?
There is no single best method. Suitability depends on your medical history, plans and preferences, which is why counselling is individual.

Ideally a few months in advance, which allows time for health review, supplements and management of any existing condition.
Is the consultation confidential?
Yes. Family planning consultations are private and confidential.
