Highly Commended in the 2016 BMA Medical Book Awards!

From reviews:

"...undoubtedly the best feature is the user-friendly and consistent nature of the format. Each method of contraception has a dedicated chapter with an identical outline showcasing factual and practical content using bulleted text, tables and pictograms.... The book would be useful for medical students that are 'new' to the subject as the outline of the chapters lends itself to seamless grasping of new information. However, the practical application of the factual information is ideal for both gynaecological and family planning trainees, nurses that work within the field and general practitioners." Ulster Medical Journal 2016:85(3):211

This revised edition has been updated to include the 2016 UK Medical Eligibility Criteria for contraceptive use, as well as other updates. It helps healthcare professionals to provide up to date and practical guidance on all the commonly used contraceptive methods:

  • combined oral contraceptive (COCs), patches, and vaginal rings

  • progestogen-only pills (POPs), progestogen-only injectables and implants

  • copper intrauterine devices (IUDs) and the levonorgestrel IUS

  • diaphragms, cervical caps, and male and female condoms

  • natural fertility awareness advice/kits

  • emergency contraception

  • male and female sterilisation.

  • Contraception Made Easy is the ideal practical reference guide for GPs and other healthcare professionals involved in the provision of contraceptive advice.
