If you’re thinking about long-term hormonal contraception, there are three main choices: the coil (sometimes called an IUS), the implant, and the contraceptive injection. Before making your choice, it’s essential to understand a bit more about how hormonal contraception works, and the advantages and disadvantages of the different long-term options.
Hormonal contraception works as it introduces additional synthetic forms of the female sex hormones oestrogen and/or progestogen into the body. These synthetic hormones send signals to the body to reduce your chances of conceiving. Progestogen-only contraception does this by:
Forms of hormonal contraception containing oestrogen as well as progestogen, such as the combined pill, will also stop you from ovulating so that no egg is released.
It’s important to note that hormonal contraception will not protect against sexually-transmitted infections (STIs), so if this is a concern you may need to use a barrier method, such as condoms, too.
Short-term forms of hormonal contraception, such as the pill, mini-pill and contraceptive patch, are taken or renewed daily or weekly. But long-term hormonal contraception may be more suitable if any of the following apply to you:
Every body is different, so there is no one-size-fits-all answer to this question. Here are some considerations when choosing long-term hormonal contraception:
The intrauterine system (IUS) is a hormone-releasing intrauterine device. It’s commonly known as the coil, or Mirena coil, and other brands licenced for use in the UK are Jaydess and Levosert. It works by slowly releasing progesterone into your body to prevent pregnancy.
The contraceptive implant is a small, plastic rod, about 4cm long. It is inserted under the skin in your upper arm and releases progesterone into the bloodstream to prevent pregnancy.
