The adolescent population is experiencing increasing pressure to take part in sexual activity. It is part of our role as pediatricians to counsel our patients appropriately & thoroughly through their sexual & reproductive health. Dr. Shreeti Kapoor, a general pediatrician, joins Pediatric Resident Dani Watson & MS3 Irielle Duncan to discuss contraception options & how to have those conversations with adolescent patients. Specifically, they will:
- Review the efficacy, mechanism of action, potential adverse effects, and benefits of various contraceptive options, including abstinence, barrier methods, combination hormonal contraceptives, Depo Provera, and LARCs.
- Discuss how to obtain relevant medical and sexual history to help in choosing an appropriate contraceptive for an adolescent patient.
- Identify potential barriers or considerations that are specific for adolescent patients when discussing contraceptives.
- Discuss options for emergency contraception & their mechanisms of action.
Special thanks to Drs. Rebecca Yang & Danielle Rosema for peer reviewing this episode.
