    Because it's available only with prescription, afaik you will have to see a doctor at some point to get the pill. Are you saying that you don't want to speak to any doctor or that you don't want to see your doctor?

    Seamus, this is from the IFPA website:

    Emergency Contraception ('Morning After Pill')
    If you have had sex and did not use contraception or if you think the contraception did not work – emergency contraception is available in the form of hormonal pills which must be taken within 72 hours of having unprotected sex. This service is available at all of our medical centres.

    "Medical centres", i.e. there is a Doctor in the Family planning clinic!!

    I imagine that no non-Doc is gonna give out pills without some check on history, other meds etc!!
