I am interested in the copper pearls?/iub as a contraceptive. which doctors in fourways, joburg can advise? can i see a gp or must i go to a gynea?

GP or FP ok: I'm not familiar with circumstances where you live but usually, your general practitioner or family practice provider can deal with basic contraception issues and would refer you to a gynecologist if it was necessary. I believe the device you are referring to is an IUD (intrauterine device) ;->-}
