Long-Acting Reversible Contraception (sometimes referred to as LARC) is the most effective form of birth control and can last up to a few years depending on chosen method. You can compare different methods, including how well they work and side effects, when choosing a method of contraception.

• Non-hormonal copper coil (Intrauterine device – IUD)
• Hormonal coil (Intrauterine system – IUS)
• Contraceptive Injection
• Hormonal Implant

Where can you get it?

Most types of contraception are available for free in the UK through the NHS. You can contact us to make an appointment or if you need to have your current coil or implant changed.

Many GPs in Leeds also provide IUD/IUS coils and contraceptive implants. You may wish to contact your GP to see if they are able to provide this or arrange this for you.

Online options
