Birth control options

September 4, 2021

You can start, refill, or renew oral contraceptives, patches, or rings without an appointment through a secure message to the Pharmacy via MyUCBerkeleyHealth! 

For birth control requests: go to MyUCBerkeleyHealth and on the side bar menu, click “Request Birth Control” and complete the questionnaire “Contraceptive Eligibility Questionnaire: birth control pill, patch, ring” and a nurse will contact you.

Current Birth Control Options at UHS

See our Sexual Health web page to learn more about birth control options currently available at UHS.

New Birth Control Prescriptions

Many methods of contraception are available at UHS. You may now start, refill, or renew birth control oral contraceptives, patches, or rings without an appointment by sending a secure message to the Pharmacy through MyUCBerkeleyHealth.

If you would like general information about the options available at UHS, a great first step would be to make a free health education appointment (this is a counseling visit only). If you are ready for a prescription or to start the process of obtaining an IUD, diaphragm, DepoProvera, or implant, please schedule an appointment online with a clinician or call the appointment office at (510) 642-2000.
