  Entirely revised and updated and with a foreword by John Guillebaud, this is the much anticipated new edition of an invaluable, practical guide which has become an established reference for all those working in reproductive health. As in the previous edition, all forms of contraceptives are covered in detail, with guidance on prescribing, possible complications and advantages/disadvantages. The book continues to provide evidence-based clinical guidance for family-planning providers. Since the last edition was published, family planning and reproductive health has become much more closely linked with genito-urinary (GU) medicine.Reflecting this, the specialty has become known as sexual and reproductive healthcare. Among the many developments since the last edition are new types of progestogen-only pill and a profusion of new strategies and guidelines. This fifth edition is a complete update on developments in the field, integrating the new contraceptives, strategies and guidelines within family planning and reproductive healthcare.
