The DA welcomes the roll-out of the relatively new contraceptive device, Implanon, which is available at all Ekurhuleni clinics for a nominal charge.
The device, effective for three years, is inserted under the skin of the upper arm and is suitable for most women who are able to use oral contraceptives.
All clinics have nursing sisters trained in its insertion, which is a quick and painless procedure.
The DA hopes that the Ekurhuleni Department of Health continues to supply residents with advanced medical products at affordable rates.
