What is family planning?

Family planning is the process of making informed decisions about the timing, spacing, and size of your family. It allows you or you and your partner to achieve your desired family goals while considering your health, finances, and lifestyle. 

Family planning promotes your reproductive health by providing education and access to resources, helping you take control of your future.

Can medical professionals help with family planning?

Yes, medical professionals play a vital role in family planning by offering guidance, support, and personalized care. They help you explore options that align with your unique needs and goals. A Premier OBGYN of Texas provider can:

  • Discuss contraception options to prevent or delay pregnancy
  • Provide preconception counseling to ensure you’re in optimal health before trying to conceive
  • Offer advice on fertility treatments or interventions if conception is challenging
  • Monitor and support maternal health during and after pregnancy

When working closely with your medical professional, you can feel confident that you’re making informed and safe family-planning decisions tailored to your situation.

What does family planning involve?

Family planning encompasses a wide range of considerations and services to help you achieve your reproductive goals. Key aspects include:


Contraception

Birth control options range from short-term methods like pills or condoms to long-term solutions like IUDs or implants.


Fertility awareness

You can learn about your menstrual cycle and ovulation patterns to avoid or achieve pregnancy naturally.


Preconception health

Preconception health addresses medical conditions, improving nutrition, and adopting a healthy lifestyle — all to help you prepare for a healthy pregnancy.


Fertility treatments

The Premier OBGYN of Texas encourages you to explore options like ovulation induction, intrauterine insemination (IUI), or in vitro fertilization (IVF) if you’re facing fertility challenges.


Pregnancy and postpartum care

Support from your healthcare providers benefits your maternal health during pregnancy, ensures a good recovery, and helps your family’s well-being after childbirth.
