Emergency contraceptives @ 50

5 replies

BerryMummypudding · 26/01/2025 10:00

I'm 50. Stopped taking my pill before Christmas because o was getting horrible side effects.

This morning husband and I had unprotected sex. (For the first time in about 2 years!!!) it was rather lovely but I'm terrified I'll get pregnant.

We have 5 children and back on our pro creating days we got pregnant easily.

How and where do I get the morning after pill please. Will they bring me in for an interview etc etc? Or is there somewhere I can buy it over the counter please.

Thanks.

Literally any pharmacy

@boulevardofbrokendreamss can I just buy it and walk away?

It's worth getting MAP just for your peace of mind. At your age any pregnancy would more than likely end in miscarriage, but that's still best avoided.

The pharmacist will probably just want to chat to you about how to take but that should be it.
