Contraception/Birth Control
Choosing the right birth control method is a personal and important decision—one that should be based on your health, lifestyle, and future plans. Dr. Massey offers
comprehensive contraception counseling to help you understand your options and feel confident in your choice.
Whether you're looking to prevent pregnancy for the short term, space your children, or transition off birth control as you approach menopause, Dr. Massey provides
evidence-based, compassionate guidance tailored to your needs.
Available Options Include:
- Birth control pills, patches, and vaginal rings
- Long-acting reversible contraception (LARC) such as:
- Hormonal and non-hormonal IUDs
- Nexplanon (arm implant)
- Depo-Provera injections
- Barrier methods (condoms, diaphragms)
- Natural family planning / fertility awareness
- Permanent contraception counseling (referrals for tubal ligation or vasectomy)
A Personalized Approach
Dr. Massey understands that birth control is not one-size-fits-all. She takes time to talk through your medical history, menstrual patterns, and personal preferences to find a method that works well for your body and your life.
If you're experiencing side effects from your current method—or you're simply ready for a change—she’s here to help you explore other safe and effective options.
Contraception Across Life Stages
Birth control needs often change over time. Whether you're a teen just starting out, a woman balancing work and family, or someone in midlife wanting to avoid surprises before menopause, Dr. Massey provides respectful, supportive care at every stage.
If you're considering starting, stopping, or changing birth control, you're welcome to schedule a visit to talk through your options in a setting where your questions and goals are always respected.
