Advice from the FPAA Medical Advisory Committee

The Medical Advisory Committee of FPAA has released a collection of clinical statements on various contraceptive topics for health practitioners.

The FPAA Medical Advisory Committee comprises senior medical educators, senior medical officers and medical directors of the member family planning organisations. The committee reviews current clinical practice and provides evidence and consensus-based recommendations for use by health practitioners.

The statements cover new and emerging issues and guide areas where evidence is lacking.
