With her expertise and compassionate approach, Dr. Kumari ensures that patients receive personalized care and comprehensive support throughout their family planning journey.
Individualized Consultations
Dr. Soma Kumari conducts individualized counseling sessions to understand each patient’s unique needs, concerns, and goals related to family planning.

Dr. Kumari listens attentively to patients’ concerns and provides empathetic support tailored to their specific circumstances.
Education on Contraceptive Options
One of the key aspects of family planning counseling is providing patients with information about the various contraceptive options available to them. Dr. Kumari educates patients about the different types of contraceptives, including birth control pills, patches, injections, intrauterine devices (IUDs), implants, and barrier methods like condoms. She discusses the efficacy, benefits, side effects, and considerations associated with each method, helping patients make informed decisions about contraception.
Discussion of Reproductive Goals
During family planning counseling sessions, Dr. Kumari engages patients in discussions about their reproductive goals and preferences for family size and timing of pregnancy. She helps patients explore their feelings and desires regarding starting a family, spacing pregnancies, or preventing unintended pregnancies. Dr. Kumari supports patients in clarifying their priorities and making decisions that align with their values and life circumstances.
Support for Pregnancy Planning
For patients who are actively planning a pregnancy, Dr. Soma Kumari offers guidance on optimizing fertility and preconception health. She provides advice on lifestyle factors that can affect fertility, such as diet, exercise, smoking cessation, and managing chronic health conditions. Dr. Kumari empowers patients with the knowledge and resources they need to prepare for a healthy and successful pregnancy.
Respect for Patient Autonomy
Dr. Kumari respects each patient’s autonomy and right to make their own decisions about family planning. She ensures that patients feel empowered to take control of their reproductive health and make choices that are right for them. Dr. Kumari supports patients in exploring all available options and provides non-directive counseling that respects their values, beliefs, and cultural backgrounds.

She assures patients that their privacy will be respected at all times and creates a confidential environment where patients feel comfortable sharing their concerns and asking questions. Dr. Kumari prioritizes building trust with her patients and strives to create a supportive therapeutic relationship based on mutual respect and understanding.
