The Hormonal IUS Access Portal

That One Thing - The one FP/RH update you need to focus on this week

Dear Family Planning Champion,


Expanding contraceptive choice increases a woman’s ability to voluntarily adopt a family planning method that best meets her needs. For some women, that method is a highly effective, long-acting, reversible contraceptive with notable non-contraceptive health benefits, like the levonorgestrel intrauterine system (IUS) or the hormonal IUS. Although its availability has been limited in low-resource settings, that may be changing as new, more affordable hormonal IUS products become available.

This week we are featuring The Hormonal IUS Access Portal, an online resource for global information about this method.
