Options Available

We offer doctor-led fitting and removal of contraceptive coils (IUD and IUS) in a safe, supportive clinical environment. Your appointment includes a full consultation to ensure the coil is the right option for you, with time to discuss benefits, side effects, and any individual health considerations.

Benefits for Contraception

Both copper and hormonal coils are among the most effective forms of contraception, offering long-term protection without the need to remember daily tablets.

Copper IUD
Non-hormonal contraception

Effective immediately after insertion
Lasts 5–10 years
Suitable during breastfeeding
Not affected by other medications

Hormonal coil (IUS)
Provides contraception for 3–5 years
Works by thinning the womb lining and thickening cervical mucus

Highly reliable and reversible
Fertility returns to normal after removal

Benefits During Peri-menopause and Menopause

Hormonal coils can also play an important role during peri-menopause and menopause:

Can significantly reduce heavy or irregular bleeding, which is common during per-imenopause

Often leads to lighter, less painful periods, or periods stopping altogether

• Can be used as the progesterone component of hormone replacement therapy (HRT), protecting the womb lining when oestrogen is prescribed
• Provides ongoing contraception during perimenopause, when pregnancy is still possible
