Contraception
Your bridge to the right contraception for you
Bridging contraception provides a short-term supply of the contraceptive pill, helping to bridge the period between using emergency contraception and starting a long-term method. This helps lower the risk of an unintended pregnancy.
While GP practices and sexual health clinics continue to offer other contraceptive services, bridging contraception makes it easier for more people to access contraception.
Available for individuals aged 13 to 55, bridging contraception can be obtained at M&D Green pharmacies. A pharmacist will ask a few questions to ensure it's the right choice for you.
