IUD
IUDs (Intrauterine Devices) are highly effective for contraception and can also be used to manage menstrual cycles. There are two main types: hormonal and copper. Hormonal IUDs can reduce menstrual bleeding and cramping, making periods lighter and less painful, while copper IUDs provide non-hormonal, long-term contraception. Both options offer reliable, low-maintenance birth control and can be tailored to individual needs, providing an excellent choice for those seeking both contraception and menstrual cycle management.

IMPLANON
Dr. Briggs offers Implanon insertion services in a welcoming and supportive setting. He begins by discussing the procedure with the patient, explaining how Implanon functions and answering any questions or concerns. If the patient chooses to go ahead, Dr. Briggs uses a local anaesthetic to numb the upper arm.
He then uses a specially designed applicator to swiftly and carefully insert the Implanon rod beneath the skin. The entire process takes just a few minutes and involves minimal discomfort. After the insertion, Dr. Briggs provides detailed aftercare instructions and arranges a follow-up appointment to check that the implant is properly positioned and the patient is doing well.
