Contraceptive Methods

Birth control pills and the shot, with guidance to choose the method that suits you. North Houston, walk-ins welcome, no insurance, in Spanish.

Choosing a birth control method is a personal decision, and the best option is the one that fits your health, your plans and your routine. At Clínica Hispana Cruz 2 we explain each choice in Spanish, without judgment, and help you start the method you pick.

Options we offer

  • Daily birth control pills, combined or progestin-only
  • The birth control shot every three months
  • Guidance on long-acting methods and on condoms, which also protect against infections
  • Implant removal when you want to switch methods or get pregnant

Before we prescribe a method

The medical team checks your blood pressure, your history and the medicines you take. Some conditions, such as migraine with aura, smoking after age 35 or a past blood clot, make certain pills unsafe; in those cases there are estrogen-free alternatives. If a pregnancy is possible, we start with a pregnancy test.

How to start

Pills can be started on the day they're prescribed or with your next period; we'll tell you whether you need a backup method for the first few days. The shot is given at the clinic, and we note the date of your next dose so you don't miss it.

Good to know

Pills and shots do nothing against sexually transmitted infections. If you have a new partner, you can get STD testing at the same clinic. Irregular bleeding is common in the first months; if it bothers you, come back and we'll look for an adjustment. For the rest of your women's health, there's also our gynecology visit.

Frequently Asked Questions

Take it as soon as you remember, even if that means two in one day, and keep taking the rest at your usual time. If you missed two or more in a row, use condoms for seven days and ask us whether you need emergency contraception.

Every three months, about 13 weeks. If more than 15 weeks have passed since your last dose, let us know: a pregnancy test may be needed before the next one.

It doesn't cause infertility, but fertility can take several months to return after stopping it, longer than with the pill. If you plan to get pregnant soon, mention it when choosing a method.
