What is available for me?

Birth control, also known as contraception or family planning, are methods or devices used to prevent pregnancy. People use birth control for a variety of other reasons as well – from clearing up acne to relieving the symptoms of painful periods.

 

Whatever your reason, we can help.

 

Our clinics provide a wide range of birth control options at no- or low-cost. Your privacy is important to us, and that’s why we keep your appointment and any services you receive confidential. We encourage you to involve your family or parent/guardian in any major healthcare decisions you make.

 

Just ask for Title X (ten). Our clinics will know to provide you with the highest quality, confidential, low- or no-cost services.
