FSRH UK MEC
How to access the FSRH UK Medical Eligibility Criteria for Contraceptive Use (UK MEC)
The UK MEC helps clinicians decide what contraceptives they can safely recommend based on the medical conditions of patients in their care. Funded by the FSRH and developed over the last 18 months by our Clinical Effectiveness Unit, this key guidance is informed by robust and up-to-date evidence on when contraceptives can and cannot be safely used. Where evidence was lacking, the FSRH CEU took great care to obtain professional input from leading UK experts in each relevant field.
There are three different ways you can access the UKMEC including – for the first time –
- A digitally designed version enabling you to access a searchable online MEC.
- You can now order a full print copy of the UKMEC for approximately £15 from Amazon.
- Download a PDF if that is a better format or you.
