Introduction

Nappies, to do lists, packed lunches and cuddles - mothers have plenty of these in supply but the one thing you’re often short of is time. The team that showed you how to Find Your Me-Spot is now encouraging you to Get Busy Whilst Busy!

Whether you’ve just had a baby or are raising older children, sex and contraception may be the last thing on your mind but some gentle TLC might be just what the doctor ordered. Like your clothes and shoes, your contraception should keep up with your lifestyle and what you were using before having children may no longer be suitable.

As a busy mum you may find that you’re now better suited to a contraceptive which is long-acting without the hassle of remembering to take a pill every day.

So if you've completed your family or you're taking a break between having children, you may want to consider a Long Acting Reversible Contraceptive (LARC) including Intrauterine Contraception (IUC), an Implant or an Injectable. These options are highly effective (>99%) with a quick return to fertility once removed so when you want to, you can start adding to your family again. Less time worrying over contraception means more time to take advantage of those intimate moments with your partner.

It's all about You
