  • Title: [First visit for contraception].
    Author: Hassoun D.
    Journal: Rev Prat; 2008 Jan 15; 58(1):41-9. PubMed ID: 18326360.
    Abstract:
    The first visit for contraception essentially aims at listening and providing information and counseling. The choice of the contraceptive methods takes into account the contra-indications of the method as well as the patient personnel history, the type of demand, the needs and the fears. For young women, the most preferred choice is the combined pills, very effective and with minima sides effects but other methods (IUD, barrier methods) should be kept in mind. Observance requires proper information and reassurance on side effects particularly on menstruation disorders (amenorrhea, spotting) to avoid drop out.
