Garrett County Community Resource Spotlight (November): Family Planning Services – Long-Acting Reversible Contraception (LARC)

Pregnancy Goal

Do you wish to delay pregnancy?  Do you want a method of birth control that you do not want to think about every day?

You may be interested in learning more about long term reversal contraceptives such as an intrauterine device (IUD) or implant (Nexplanon).  These methods of birth control last for years and your ability to become pregnant returns quickly upon removal.

If you would like to discuss either of these birth control options please contact a family planning nurse by calling 301-334-7770.
