A specialist in women’s health, Dr. Dejean is knowledgeable about the differences among various forms of birth control pills and contraceptive devices that are on the market today.

Boca Women's Health prescribes and provides popular, FDA-approved birth control methods. This includes:
Another option is the Nexplanon® implant, which can prevent pregnancy for up to three years. The implant is a slim plastic device that gradually releases the hormone progesterone.
Dr. Dejean inserts the implant in your upper arm in a quick in-office procedure. If you want to become pregnant, she can remove it at any time.
Boca Women's Health offers both hormonal and non-hormonal IUDs, which are long-lasting, reversible contraception.
Hormonal IUDs, such as Mirena® and Skyla®, release progesterone to prevent pregnancy and are nearly 100% effective. The devices last as long as six years and offer the side benefit of relieving heavy, painful periods.
Another method is Paraguard®, an IUD made of copper that prevents pregnancy for up to 10 years. If you’d like an IUD, Dr. Dejean can insert the device during your visit to Boca Women's Health. You also can return to Boca Women's Health whenever you’d like to have the device removed.
If you find the multitude of contraception options confusing, trust Dr. Dejean and the team at Boca Women's Health to help you select the best choice for you. Call today or book your contraception consultation online.
