The April 23-25 congress is one of the most prestigious gatherings in global adolescent health and gynecological care.
Creinin’s plenary talk on April 23 is titled “Mastering Hormonal Contraception: World-Leading Insights from the Forefront of Adolescent.” He will provide an in-depth exploration of the latest advancements in levonorgestrel and copper IUDs, as well as progestin-based contraceptives. He will also equip providers with evidence-based, culturally sensitive approaches to address common misconceptions about IUDs and progestin therapies. In addition, he will highlight pioneering developments in IUD technology and progestin delivery systems, including much of his own research that has led to the development of many of the contraceptives in use today.
Creinin is also a featured luncheon speaker Thursday on the topic “Understanding Non-Palpable Etonogestrel Implants.” In addition, he will present a hands-on workshop on paracervical blocks.
