💊 Contraception isn’t “one size fits all.” Pills, injections, implants, and IUDs each work differently — and the right choice depends on your body, lifestyle, and goals. Whether you want short-term flexibility or long-term peace of mind, there’s an option for you.
💬 Book a consultation to find your perfect fit — informed choices lead to empowered women.

🌼 Understanding Baby's Gender Determination🤰💖

It’s a common belief that the position of the baby in the womb can indicate gender, but this is not an accurate method. For reliable gender determination, medical methods such as ultrasound are your best bet.

However, choosing to keep the gender a surprise can add to the excitement and joy of the big day! Celebrating the arrival of your little one without knowing their gender beforehand can make the moment even more special.

Whether you find out or wait, the love and joy of welcoming your new baby is what truly matters! 💕

🌟 Taking Charge of Your Reproductive Health with Dr. Jade Esau🌟

When it comes to your reproductive health, knowledge is power. Today, we’re highlighting various contraceptive methods that empower you to make informed decisions about your body and future. 💪 It’s essential to consult with your trusted healthcare practitioner for personalized advice.

Contraceptive Options:

1. Hormonal Options: Methods such as pills, patches, rings, and injections release hormones to prevent ovulation and thicken cervical mucus, making it more challenging for s***m to reach the egg.

2. Barrier Methods: Condoms (both male and female) create a barrier to block s***m from reaching the egg, and they also provide protection against STIs. 🌈

3. Implants: A small rod is placed under the skin of your arm, offering effective contraception for several years without the need for daily attention.

Remember, no contraceptive method is one-size-fits-all. It's crucial to consult with a healthcare provider to determine which option works best for you. Empower yourself with knowledge and take charge of your sexual health! ❤️
