Emergency Contraceptive Pill

If you have engaged in unprotected sex or your regular contraception method has failed, it is important to consider the possibility of pregnancy. One option available to you is the morning after pill, also known as emergency contraception.

The morning after pill can be taken within five days after unprotected sex, depending on the specific type of pill. It works by preventing or delaying ovulation, increasing the chances of preventing pregnancy. However, it is important to note that the morning after pill is intended for emergency use only and should not be used as a regular form of contraception.

If you require immediate access to the morning after pill, The Precinct offers emergency hormonal contraceptives for women who have had unprotected sex within the past five days. Our pharmacists are trained to provide confidential and supportive consultations. Simply visit our branch at your earliest convenience to discuss your options and receive the necessary guidance and assistance.

Alternatively, you can also consult your local GP or visit a sexual health/contraception clinic for further assistance. It is important to act quickly and seek appropriate advice to ensure you make an informed decision regarding your reproductive health.
