Family Planning

Contrary to common belief, family planning services don’t revolve solely around planning to have children. Your GP at Bodyvie is here to help you to make the right choices for your lifestyle, whether you are looking for birth control, or to extend your family now, or one day in the future.

Both men and women can benefit from family planning services and discussing with a professional, either alone or together with a partner, can be hugely beneficial in helping you decide how you would like your future to look.

At Bodyvie, established in 1999, our GPs bring over 25 years of combined experience. They are compassionate, supportive, and dedicated to your wellbeing. You can seek advice for a wide range of health concerns in a safe, welcoming environment that is free from judgement.

Contraceptive Advice

Receive tailored contraceptive advice to help you decide on a mode of contraception that suits you. We can offer the following types of birth control:

• IUD coil (for up to 5 days post intercourse).
• Copper coil
• Combined contraceptive pills
• The progesterone-only pills
• Hormonal coil

Emergency Contraception

If you’ve had unprotected intercourse, or your contraception has failed, we can provide you with emergency contraception and address any worries or anxieties you might be harbouring. We can also discuss how to help you to avoid the need for emergency contraception in the future.

Your GP at Bodyvie can fit and remove contraceptive devices, such as the IUD and copper coil.
