Product Description
This title is directed primarily towards health care professionals outside of the United States. Entirely revised and updated and with a foreword by John Guillebaud, this is the much anticipated new edition of an invaluable, practical guide which has become an established reference for all those working in reproductive health. As in the previous edition, all forms of contraceptives are covered in detail, with guidance on prescribing, possible complications and advantages/disadvantages. The book continues to provide evidence-based clinical guidance for family-planning providers. This fifth edition is a complete update on developments in the field, integrating the new contraceptives, strategies and guidelines within family planning and reproductive healthcare.- Five new chapters
- New chapter authors from North America and Australia
- New chapter on service provision issues including services for diverse groups such as ethnic minorities, lesbian and bisexuals, learning disabilities etc.
- Progestogen-only methods now covered in three new chapters on individual methods: progestogen-only pill, injectables and implants
- Evidence-based guidance from UK Faculty of Family Planning included in the chapters on contraceptive methods
- Chapter on screening expanded to include issues relating to chlamydia, to reflect changes in management in this area
