Accessing the pill

The process of accessing the ECP is simple. Appointments are not required and you can access the ECP without a GP referral. Our accredited pharmacists can prescribe the emergency contraceptive pill after a quick private consultation.

The consultation process is a safeguarding protocol to ensure that the ECP medication is safe for you to use. During the consultation our accredited pharmacist will also chat to you about your contraception and sexual health moving forward, if you want to.

Key Facts

• 97% effective for those of an average weight when taken within 4-days of unprotected sex
• The definition of unprotected sex includes when contraception was either not used or has failed. E.g a condom split
• The ECP stops or delays the release of an egg from the ovaries until the sperm aren’t active in the body any more.
• The ECP prevents sperm from fertilising an egg by changing the way the sperm moves in the body.
• The ECP is commonly called ‘the morning after pill’ which became confusing since the ECP can be taken at any time during the first 72-hours after unprotected sex
