Morning after pill question

Just been to pharmacy to buy MAP and been told that as I have irregular periods they can’t give it to me without a prescription (I’m in Ireland and the guidelines are very strict)
I know my cycle well, and am as certain as I can be of where I am in it. I haven’t ovulated yet but judging by other signs I’m close.
I can’t get to GP until this evening. This puts me outside the 24 hr period that they say is optimum. And I’ll have to fork out €60 .
I’m tempted to just go to another pharmacy and lie. Wwyd?

Honestly I’d go to another pharmacy and not mention my irregular periods

Go and lie.

I've stopped telling pharmacies the truth.

Just go to a different pharmacy and say you have regular periods!

Run to another pharmacy and get the pill.

Don’t take chances

Thanks everyone for the advice. Went down the road and told a white lie.
