Progestin-only implants

This is one of the most popular birth control methods postpartum on the OB Unit. It is an insertable 3-year capsule and can only be inserted by a specially trained (and certified) provider. This can usually be arranged for the patient within a 24 hour (or sooner) period. If you are an inpatient provider and have not completed training, go to Immediate Postpartum LARC for Clinicians Doing Deliveries|ACOG Webinars for didactic training, then call Dr. Dave Compton to complete the hands on training.

The IUDs are now in the OB Pyxis for immediate postpartum insertion.

There is a new consent form for this process located on OB. Most important, non-beneficiary patients may get a bill for $300 or more for the device if not preauthorized.
