Emergency Contraception
If you have had unprotected sex or your contraception has failed during sex, you are at risk of pregnancy. Emergency contraception can be taken up to 72 hours after sex, but it works better the sooner you take it.
You can get emergency contraception from contraceptive & sexual health clinics & young people clinics, however we run a scheme where pharmacists across Kent can give you emergency contraception free of charge if you are under 20.
Free 24 hour information line. Don't forget, for up to date information of services for young people in Kent, you can call the 'foryoungpeople' information line free from a landline.
