How does a holistic gynecologist determine the best birth control method for a patient?
As a holistic gynecologist, determining the birth control method for a patient is through a thorough education of all the available options, the pros and cons of each, followed by a full discussion with the patient of where she is in her life and how much responsibility she is willing to assume over her fertility. It is my experience that when the decision for birth control is approached in this fashion, there is a greater likelihood for compliance as the patient is now a partner in her care. Safe, effective birth control does exist, although failures occur with each, it is important to distinguish between the failure of a birth control method itself and the failure of a woman to use it properly. The best we can do is choose wisely and minimize human error. Q: How do you approach cases of recurring ovarian cysts? My first approach always involves education.
