Emergency Hormonal Contraceptive

The team at Poundbury Pharmacy understand that it is important for women to be able to access emergency contraception to prevent an unplanned pregnancy after unprotected sex or if the contraception being used has failed. For example, if you have missed a pill or a condom has split. We are therefore pleased to be able to offer a walk-in service providing emergency contraception.

Within this service, Poundbury Pharmacy also hopes to increase the knowledge, especially among young people, of the availability of emergency contraception and contraception from pharmacies as well as improving access to emergency contraception. We can also offer advice and share knowledge on STIs and refer into contraception services where necessary.
