Manage episode 311842357 series 3192138
This episode covers the depo and Sayana Press injections which are progesterone only contraception options that given every 13 weeks. In the current COVID 19 situation, the Sayana Press may be a good option as you can learn to give yourself the injection without having to come to the GP surgery. I discuss how they work, the good and not-so-good things about them and how to get started on the Sayana Press injections based on our system at Unity Health. This video shows you how to do your own Sayana Press injections.: you should watch this before your video appointment when we will help teach you to give yourself the first injection. https://www.sayanaanswers.co.uk/guide-to-self-injection
