What Should I Consider Before Choosing Birth Control?
Choosing birth control means finding a method that fits your health and lifestyle. Some prefer a hands-on approach, while others want minimal upkeep. Your provider considers blood pressure, migraines, medications, smoking status, cycle symptoms, and pregnancy plans. For patients in Washington Heights, counseling centers on informed choice, with a clear look at benefits and tradeoffs before deciding.
