By: Dr. Gayllyn Faust

Board Certified Gynecologist

Long-Acting Reversible Contraception (LARC) is a group of highly effective, well tolerated prescription contraceptives. There are 3 distinct groups of LARC. There is an injectable, a subdermal implant, and intrauterine devices. With the exception of the Paragard IUD, which is a copper containing IUD without any hormone, all other LARCs are progesterone only forms of contraception (meaning they do not contain the hormone estrogen).
