Contraception Service
The service provides a consultation with a pharmacist where you can discuss contraceptive options and reach a shared decision about the first supply of the pill. The consultation may require BMI and blood pressure measurements to be taken. Once you have decided on the first supply or continuation of current oral contraception, the supply will be ongoing. The service also provides access to Emergency Hormonal Contraception (EHC), which can be supplied after consultation if appropriate.
Treatment
There are three types of oral contraceptives that are offered:
· Progestogen Only Contraceptive Pill (POP)
· Combination Oral Contraceptive (COC)
· Emergency Hormonal Contraception (EHC)
Upon booking an appointment you are required to fill out the form which will be included in the confirmation email (in the form of a link).
This appointment does not guarantee you will be prescribed medication, this is dependent on the pharmacists opinion as to the whether it is suitable.
