Hi girls, UK girl here. Do I have to contact my GB to stop my pill? I’ve been on it quite a while and would like to come off it for a while 💊💊💊💊💊💊💊💊💊💊💊💊💊💊💊💊💊💊💤💤💤💤💤💤💤💊💊💊 Brand: Yasmin

@Pippen123 couldn’t you just not request a repeat prescription of it from the nhs app? x

I don’t see why you’d have to but it’s definitely good to talk to them about it to talk about what to expect and stuff

with the nhs you just stop making appointments, the nhs doesn’t let you make repeat prescriptions with the pill as they like to check up on your side effects

@bluey1234 I don’t need a repeat, I’m hoping to stop the pill all together x

@onthepillxo I’m hoping to stop the pill, I’m from Northern Ireland. I’ve been on the Pill 5 years and I’ve always had repeat prescriptions x

oh in england they don’t allow it, id maybe call your gp and let them know you want to cancel your repeat prescription

@onthepillxo oh with me once i’ve finished a pack i go on the NHS app and request another prescription of my pill

in england? that’s weird it doesn’t let me do that, my drs said that it was so i could get a check up before getting my next prescription every time

@onthepillxo yeahh in england, i’ve only had 1 checkup about the pill since i started it and that was in February 2024
