Coil Fitting (IUD / IUS)
Long-acting contraception and heavy period management provided in a discreet clinical setting.
What is a Coil Fitting?
A coil is a small device placed inside the uterus to provide long-term contraception.
Also known as an IUD (copper coil) or IUS (hormonal coil), it is one of the most reliable contraceptive options available and can remain effective for several years depending on the type used.
At Genesis Clinic, coil fitting and removal are performed by clinicians experienced in women's reproductive health in a calm, private medical environment.
