What to expect
Visiting Chatham Pharmacy for contraception is straightforward and confidential. Here's what to expect during your appointment.
When you visit us for the contraception service, you'll speak with one of our trained pharmacists in a private consultation room. They'll ask you about your medical history, current medications, and any allergies to ensure the contraception is safe for you. This conversation is completely confidential and conducted with sensitivity and professionalism.
If you're eligible and a suitable contraceptive is available, your pharmacist will supply it to you on the day. For oral contraception, you'll receive a pack with full instructions on how to use it. If you need emergency contraception, we can often provide this within hours. Your pharmacist will also discuss any side effects you might experience and answer all your questions before you leave.
The whole process was so quick and easy. I was in and out of Chatham Pharmacy in less than 20 minutes with my contraception sorted.
