Description

CDC's Contraception app can help health care providers counsel patients about contraceptive method choice and use. It is based on CDC Contraceptive Guidance for Health Care Providers. The app covers more than 60 characteristics or medical conditions (U.S. MEC) and numerous clinical situations (U.S. SPR). Although these recommendations are meant to serve as a source of clinical guidance, health care providers should always consider the individual clinical circumstances of each person seeking contraception services.
