Hormonal Birth Control
At Choix we offer three types of hormonal birth control: the Pill, the Patch, or the Vaginal Ring. If you are a person who gets their period and are seeking a birth control method that is safe, effective, easy to use, and puts you in control of your contraceptive care, we can help.
We can then have contraception delivered through our partner pharmacy or you can pick it up at your local pharmacy – whatever is most convenient.
$15 Consultation fee + cost for contraception. Please note that the cost for contraception depends on the pharmacy you use and whether or not you use insurance.
You are 13-49 years of age and in the state of California.
Submit the questionnaire and consultation fee here. You will need:

Payment information
Once we receive your information, we’ll be in touch within 24-hours (during regular business hours).
We offer both progestin-only and “combined hormonal contraceptives” or CHCs. CHCs are called so because they have two hormones, estrogen and progestin. They are similar to the hormones your body already produces.

They are super user friendly & effective. You can start or stop them whenever you want, and these methods all work very well (91-99% effective).
-
With the pill, our monthly bleeding will be regular, but the pills can also be used continuously; you can use them in such a way where you skip your period. This can be nice when you have a special event or are traveling…or if you simply just don’t want to get your period!
-
These methods all provide a quick return to fertility if you wish — after stopping the method, you can get pregnant right away.
