Description
CDC's Contraceptive App can help health care providers counsel women, men, and couples about contraceptive method choice and use. CDC developed it using contraceptive recommendations from the Division of Reproductive Health. The app covers more than 60 characteristics or medical conditions (US MEC) and numerous clinical situations (US 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 family planning services.
