Type of Contraception
Please choose whether you would like a prescription for the progestogen only pill (POP) or combined oral contraceptive pill (COC).
Progestogen only pill Combined oral contraceptive pill
Are you currently taking the progestogen only pill? Yes, I want a repeat prescription No, I wish to start the progestogen only pill
The progestogen-only pill (also known as ‘POP’ or ‘mini pill’) is a small tablet that contains a progestogen hormone. It works by thickening the cervical mucous stopping the sperm meeting the egg and, in some women, it also stops ovulation.

Effectiveness: With perfect use about 1 in 100 women will get pregnant each year, however, for typical use about 9 in 100 women will get pregnant each year. This is because in typical use people forget pills or might do something else that makes it less effective. It becomes effective 48 hours after taking your first pill.

Advantages: Medically the POP is very safe, there are very few contraindications and risks. Whilst it is a good contraceptive for women of all ages, it is ideal for women who can’t take oestrogen or are older.

Disadvantages: You may not get a regular bleed with this method, whilst some women may experience no bleeding others may experience bleeding at irregular intervals.

Use: The POP is taken daily, you do not take a break between packets. Most POPs have to be taken within 3 hours of the same time each day, except one that contains desogestrel which has to be taken within 12 hours of the same time each day. We supply both, but if you are a new customer we will supply the desogestrel POP.

Please read further information here

We need to check that there is nothing in your medical history that might make it unsafe to use the POP

Online prescription of POP is offered only to women below the age of 55.

In the last 12 months which CNWL service did you use for the COC?
COC is available online only to women who are currently receiving this method from either a CNWL sexual health clinic or CNWL online service. (We will check this against our records)
The combined oral contraceptive pill (also known as ‘COC’) is a small tablet that contains a progestogen and oestrogen hormone. It works by stopping you ovulating (producing an egg).

Effectiveness: With perfect use about 1 in 100 women will get pregnant each year, however for typical use about 9 in 100 women will get pregnant each year. This is because in typical use people forget pills or might do something else that makes it less effective. It becomes effective 7 days after taking your first pill.

Disadvantages: There is a very small increased risk of venous thrombosis and stroke when using this pill, the medical history you provide us with will assess whether you are at increased risk and therefore should not use an oestrogen containing contraceptive. The COC increases the risk of heart attacks, breast cancer and cervical cancer.

Advantages: This method gives very predictable bleeding patterns and makes bleeds less heavy. You can take it continuously and take a break when you want a bleed. It can also improve acne in some women. The COC also reduces the risk of endometrial, ovarian and bowel cancer.

Use: The COC is usually taken daily, with a seven day break each month. However, not taking a break may increase the effectiveness, as does reducing the break between packs to 4 days. This is safe to do and reduces the number of bleeds you have.
It has to be taken within 24 hours of the same time each day.

We need to check that there is nothing in your medical history that might make it unsafe to use the COC
