Family Planning Center in Ahmedabad

We provide appropriate guidance on choosing the right contraceptive method based on an individual’s health, preferences, and future plans. Our gynecologists provide clear, honest explanations of how each option works, including benefits and potential side effects.

Some common contraceptive methods suggested by us include the following:

• Oral contraceptive pills: They need to be taken daily and usually offer high effectiveness when used consistently.
• Barrier methods: Male and female condoms not only act as contraceptives, but also protect against sexually transmitted infections.
• Injectable contraceptives: They have to be administered every 1 to 3 months, offering medium-term protection without daily reminders.
• Intrauterine devices (IUDs): They are devices inserted into the female uterus (womb) that offer 3 to 10 years of protection against unwanted pregnancy.
• Implants: These are small rods placed under the skin of the arm, which release hormones gradually and offer up to 5 years of protection.
• Emergency contraception: It is used after unprotected intercourse to prevent pregnancy.

Each contraceptive method is offered with personalized consultation and follow-up care at SGVP Holistic Hospital, ensuring patients are comfortable and well-informed.

For those preferring non-hormonal, natural methods, we offer guidance on:

• Fertility awareness-based methods: They involve tracking the menstrual cycle of the female to identify her fertile days and avoid intercourse on those days.
• Withdrawal method: The male partner withdraws before ejaculation in this method.
• Lactational amenorrhea method: It is a temporary form of contraception that takes advantage of the natural suppression of ovulation during breastfeeding and can be effective during exclusive breastfeeding within the first 6 months postpartum.

Our team provides training and education to help couples use these methods effectively and responsibly.

For couples planning to conceive, SGVP Holistic Hospital offers comprehensive preconception counseling to improve the chances of a healthy pregnancy. This includes:

• Reviewing medical history and managing chronic conditions like diabetes or hypertension.
• Recommending lifestyle changes, including nutrition and exercise.
• Starting folic acid and prenatal supplements.
• Discussing ideal spacing and timing for pregnancy.

These consultations are tailored for each individual or couple, helping them begin their parenting journey on a healthy note.

After childbirth, many women are not sure when and how to begin contraception. We offer postpartum family planning support, ensuring new mothers can safely choose from methods compatible with breastfeeding, such as:

• Progestin-only pills
• IUD insertion after delivery
• Injectable contraceptives
• Barrier methods

Our team helps new mothers focus on recovery and infant care while feeling confident about their reproductive choices.

We also support individuals with unique reproductive health needs, such as:

• Adolescents looking for confidential counseling and safe contraceptive access.
• Unmarried individuals who want guidance without judgment.
• Couples with genetic concerns needing reproductive advice.
• Women with chronic illnesses like epilepsy, obesity, or thyroid disorders, for whom specific contraceptive planning is required.
