Self-Referred Services
You have book an appointment for episodic procedural care.
At Femina Health, we prioritize thoughtful, patient-centred procedural care. Our in-office IUD and Nexplanon procedures are performed using high-quality supplies, dedicated Registered Nurse support, and extended appointment time to ensure patient comfort, safety, and education.
A procedure tray fee is required for all Self-Referred IUD or Nexplanon insertions/removals.
Patients may either:
• Purchase the procedure tray fee through the clinic, or
• Obtain a referral for care through your general provider.
Physician services remain publicly funded. This fee applies only to the additional procedural supplies and clinic support associated with these services.
Penthrox® (Methoxyflurane) for Procedural Pain Relief
For patients who may benefit from additional pain control during an office procedure, Penthrox® may be prescribed. Penthrox is a fast-acting, inhaled pain medication that can help make procedures such as IUD insertions or endometrial biopsies more comfortable. Because it is a prescription medication, a referral from your healthcare provider is required so we can review your medical history and ensure it is a safe and appropriate option for you.
Not everyone requires Penthrox, and many patients do well with other pain management options. Your healthcare provider can help determine which approach is best for you.
