Plan B (emergency contraception) can be obtained conveniently in several ways:
- At physical retail locations like drugstores and pharmacies, including Target, Walgreens, CVS, and Walmart. Plan B is usually available over the counter without a prescription or ID, and can often be bought off the shelf or by asking the pharmacist.
- Online through telehealth services or pharmacies such as Nurx, Wisp, Pandia Health, or Amazon. Some of these options accept insurance, offer discreet shipping, and even provide prescriptions if needed.
- Family planning clinics like Planned Parenthood often stock Plan B and can provide advice, sometimes at lower or no cost.
- In the UK, emergency contraception can be obtained from sexual health clinics, GP surgeries, and pharmacies.
- Some online UK services like Boots Online Doctor offer same-day prescriptions for emergency contraception.
Plan B does not require a prescription in the US, and no ID or age restriction applies federally. Options that accept insurance or offer free delivery may require a prescription. Cost and speed of access vary; physical stores allow immediate pickup, while online options may have shipping delays but more discretion. In summary, Plan B can be obtained at major drugstores, family planning clinics, or online through various telehealth platforms with options for same-day pickup or discreet delivery.
