Women’s Health Frequently Asked Questions
Can I switch my birth control?
Yes. We review your goals (bleeding control, acne, migraines, mood, cycle predictability, future fertility) and recommend options such as pills, patch, ring, hormonal or copper IUDs, implant, or the shot. We plan a seamless changeover so there is no gap in protection and send prescriptions the same day when appropriate.
Do you place IUDs and implants?
Yes. We place and remove hormonal and copper IUDs and the etonogestrel arm implant. We discuss which device fits your needs, review timing, pain-control options, after-care, and typical side effects like temporary cramping or spotting. Same-day placement is often available; we will check your coverage and any prior authorization needs.
Can I get STI testing without symptoms?
Yes. Screening is available on request and can include urine or swab tests for chlamydia and gonorrhea, plus blood tests for HIV, syphilis, and hepatitis when indicated. Results are shared promptly with clear next steps, treatment if needed, and guidance for partner notification.
Do you treat UTIs?
Yes. We offer evaluation and treatment with same-week appointments and often same- or next-day visits for symptoms. We can do a urine test in clinic, send a culture when needed, and start medication right away. Seek urgent care if you have fever, back or flank pain, or vomiting.
