Coil Fitting Service
Long-Acting Reversible Contraception | Hormonal & Non-Hormonal Options
Coils, or intrauterine devices (IUDs), are a highly effective, long-term form of contraception. Placed directly into the uterus, coils provide protection lasting between 5-10 years depending on the type. They are a convenient, low-maintenance alternative to daily or short-term methods. The Mirena coil (a hormonal option) is also licensed to help manage heavy menstrual bleeding and may be used as part of Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT).
At Harpenden Medical, we offer both hormonal and non-hormonal coils, with fittings carried out on-site by our Women’s Health GP Specialist, Dr Vidya Kanthi.

Testimonials
What our patients say...
I visited Harpenden Medical following a series of heart-related issues. I have seen various GPs and been prescribed different medications but didn’t see any improvement.
After speaking with Dr Jollyman, for the first time in years I feel I am finally being listened to and given the right advice. I feel better already after a few short weeks of treatment and I look forward to seeing more results.

A beautiful clinic, on truly stunning grounds.
I thoroughly enjoyed my first visit to Harpenden Medical Clinic and have booked further treatments on recommendation after a discovery call to explore my health concerns. I can’t wait to go back!
