Emergency Contraception: Confidential Pharmacy Advice

Mustafa Ameer · 12 September 2026

If you need emergency contraception, ask for advice as soon as possible. Pharmacy consultations are private, confidential and focused on finding the safest suitable option for you.

What we will ask

The pharmacist will ask when unprotected sex happened, where you are in your cycle, whether you take regular medicines and some relevant health questions. This helps determine which option is suitable.

Advice after the consultation

We will explain how to take any medicine supplied, possible side effects, ongoing contraception and when a pregnancy test may be needed. We can refer you if another option would be more effective.

You will be treated with dignity and without judgement.
