Women's Health

At Porirua Union & Community Health Service (PUCHS), we offer a range of women’s health services to support your wellbeing. From cervical screening and contraception advice to mammogram referrals, we’re here to help ensure you have access to preventive care and early detection. If you're experiencing abnormal or heavy bleeding, we provide specialised care, including procedures like pipelle biopsies to help manage these concerns. We also offer free or subsidised contraception options, like long-acting reversible contraceptives (LARCs) such as IUDs and the Jadelle implant insertion and removals. Our caring team is here to support you every step of the way.
