Can I receive a prescription after my visit?

view answer

Yes. Depending on your health history and preferences, your provider may prescribe certain birth control methods, such as pills, the patch, the ring, or emergency contraception. During your visit, your provider will review your options, help you decide what fits your goals, and outline next steps if you’re interested in a method that requires in-person care (like an IUD, implant, or injection).
