Family Planning Q & A

What is family planning?

Family planning is the process of intentionally choosing when and how to add to your family. While contraception is a central focus within family planning, it isn’t the only service available within family planning.

Birth control reduces the risk of unwanted pregnancy. There are many options to choose from and a solution to fit virtually every set of needs. Some options are used before each sexual encounter, while others provide weeks, months, or even years of protection.

Additional services that play a role in family planning include:

  • Sexually transmitted disease prevention, screening, and treatment
  • Infertility care
  • Pelvic exams
  • Preconception health services
  • Screening for reproductive cancers
  • Sexual health counseling

Your OB/GYN discusses your family planning needs during your initial visit to ensure you get the services you need to thrive.

What are the benefits of working with a women’s health specialist for family planning?

When you partner with a skilled women’s health specialist for family planning, you improve your chances of successfully shaping your reproductive future. You’ll also have somewhere to turn when questions or concerns arise, which provides outstanding peace of mind.

Family planning begins by reducing your risk of unwanted pregnancy, but it’s also important to ensure that when the time comes to welcome a child into the world, your body is prepared for the rigors of pregnancy and childbirth.

Once you have your first child, the spacing between subsequent births will significantly impact your experience as a parent. Your practitioner listens to your needs and desires to help you create a timeline that provides the best chances for success.

Some women want to have their children with little time between pregnancies. For others, spacing pregnancies over time is essential for their parenting or career goals. No matter how you’d like your family to take shape, family planning services can help.

When should I begin coming in for family planning visits?

The best way to secure optimal family planning care is to find an OB/GYN you know and trust well in advance of starting your family. This gives you time to establish a trusting bond with your practitioner long before the time comes to plan your first pregnancy.

Having a child changes so much in life. Your relationship dynamics, financial planning, career path, and much more will shift once you become a parent. Adding more children to the family creates new changes. Your OB/GYN can help you decide on a path that best aligns with the life you want.

Of course, pregnancy is often an unpredictable process, and even the best-crafted plans can change if complications arise.

For example, you may plan to become pregnant as soon as possible after having your first baby, but find it difficult to get the sleep and nutrition you need to support a second healthy pregnancy. A caring provider can assist you in navigating challenges like these.
