Morning After Pill

You may be worried about becoming pregnant if your usual contraception has failed or you have had unprotected sex. The morning after pill (MAP) could be one of the options available to you in this case.

Getting the MAP:

While currently not possible to order the MAP online from a Malta-based pharmacy, a pharmacist at any of the pharmacies listed below should be able to provide the morning after pill following a private chat.

After helping you understand all of your options based on your need for emergency contraception, the pharmacist will advise if one of the morning after pills is suitable for you.

The sooner you take the morning after pill after unprotected sex, the greater the chances of avoiding pregnancy. The morning after pill should not be used on a regular basis as it is intended for emergency use only.

If you discover you are pregnant:

Pregnancy is a life-changing experience and may be overwhelming particularly if alone, fearful of parents' or partner's reactions, still at school, planning a career or finding oneself in difficult social circumstances. For these reasons, dealing with an unexpected pregnancy may cause a great deal of turmoil.

You have an important decision to make.

HOPE Pregnancy Support, a Pro-life group, is run by a team of volunteers, including various professionals. Their approach is non-judgemental and strictly confidential. Services offered include:
