Women using combined hormonal contraception (CHC) need close monitoring. Women are asked to undergo an annual review. This review involves completing an online form, in addition to an up-to-date blood pressure and weight.
Women will be prescribed up to 12 months supply of CHC at both initiation and when continuing CHC, although it may be appropriate to provide a more limited supply (e.g. 3 months supply) for women who would benefit from returning for a follow-up visit, or women who fail to submit a blood pressure and/or weight reading.
