Just need some advice please, I had unprotected sex on day 17 of my cycle. I'm very irregular with sometimes long and sometimes short cycles. I have no idea if I've ovulated/ near ovulation. I'm also undecided if I want children though I'm in a committed relationship. Getting pregnant isn't the worst thing but I don't think right now is right. For context I'm close to 40 and feeling a little embarrassed to be in this position. I'm overweight so the MAP might not be effective for me and the coil is quite a commitment when I may (or may not) want children. Not sure what to do and feel nervous to ring my GP or sexual health clinic at my age!

Ellaone is effective if you are overweight. You don’t have to go to a gp, just ask a pharmacist fit. Costs around £30.

Go on boots online doctor. You can answer some questions and pay 30 quid online then go into boots and collect the morning after pill discretely.

Thanks both I didn't realise I could do that via pharmacy so I've ordered the ellaone! Hopefully it's effective for me.
