The NHS Pharmacy Contraception Service is designed to improve access and choice for people seeking contraception support through community pharmacy in England.
Depending on clinical suitability and service scope, this may include oral contraception support, ongoing monitoring, and access to oral emergency contraception under NHS pathways.
Askern Pharmacy provides a confidential setting where we can explain the options available and help identify the most appropriate next step.
