How do I get contraception?

If you wish to start a new form of contraception for the first time please make an appointment with a Practice Nurse.

If you need emergency contraception please contact us as soon as possible. If you require this please tell the reception team so that they can arrange for you to speak to a clinician as soon as possible.

How do I get a repeat prescription of my contraception?

If you are established on any form of the pill or the injection, then you can arrange a pill check or an injection with one of the nurses. For most women using oral contraception we will need to see you every 6 months for your pill check. You will need to book a nurse appointment for your pill check.

What do I do if I would like an IUD (copper coil) or IUS (Mirena coil)?

We currently have no GP who can perform this procedure at the Practice.  Please visit Sexual Health Sheffield website for more details.


What do I do if I would like a contraceptive implant?

Dr Hannah Walch fit implants at the surgery.

Please contact the surgery and explain your request to the receptionist. The receptionist will ensure that you are added to the waiting list for implants. Please be aware that you may have to wait a couple of months before having the implant fitted. If you require alternative contraception whilst waiting please inform the receptionist who will make sure you are directed to a clinician who can arrange this for you.

Please be aware that Sexual Health Sheffield also offers a full contraception service.
