Now Offering Contraceptive Implants at The Alexandra Practice

Now Offering Contraceptive Implants at The Alexandra Practice: Expanding Our Commitment to Women’s Health

At The Alexandra Practice, we believe great healthcare starts with choice, access, and trust. That’s why we’re proud to announce that we are now offering contraceptive implants at our practice—another step in our ongoing commitment to supporting women’s health at every stage of life.

Whether you’re looking for a highly effective, low-maintenance form of contraception or simply want to explore your options with a clinician who listens, our team is here to help.

What Is a Contraceptive Implant?

A contraceptive implant is a small, flexible rod that’s placed just under the skin of the upper arm. It releases a steady, low dose of hormone to prevent pregnancy and is one of the most effective forms of reversible contraception available.

Many patients choose the implant because it is:

  • Long-acting – provides protection for several years

  • Highly effective – over 99% effective at preventing pregnancy

  • Low maintenance – no daily pill or regular appointments needed

  • Reversible – can be removed at any time if your plans change

For busy lives, changing priorities, or anyone who wants reliable contraception without the daily reminders, the implant can be a great option.

Putting Women’s Health First

Adding contraceptive implant services is part of our wider commitment to comprehensive, patient-centred women’s healthcare at The Alexandra Practice. We know that contraception isn’t one-size-fits-all—your health, lifestyle, and future plans all matter.

That’s why we focus on:

  • Personalised consultations – We take the time to understand your needs and answer your questions

  • Evidence-based care – Our recommendations are guided by the latest clinical guidance

  • A supportive, judgement-free environment – Your choices, your body, your future

  • Continuity of care – From first discussion to fitting, follow-up, and beyond

Our clinicians are trained and experienced in fitting and removing contraceptive implants, and we’re committed to making the process as comfortable, clear, and stress-free as possible.

We’re more than just a place to book appointments—we’re a healthcare team that believes in building long-term relationships with our patients. Patients choose The Alexandra Practice because we offer:

Is the Contraceptive Implant Right for You?

The best way to find out is to book a consultation. During your appointment, we’ll talk through:

  • Your medical history and any current medications

  • Your lifestyle and preferences
