That's great news. I thought it already was, but it turns out it's just some places that offer it for free so good it's being expanded:
The new announcement aims to increase access to the morning-after pill; while it is already available for nothing from most GP surgeries, most sexual health clinics and some NHS walk-in centres, not all pharmacies offer it for nothing, with some women paying up to £30 for the medication.
Tbh it just feels like another way to administer the same drugs. I wish there was more focus on actually developing birth control that didn't have the wealth of side effects.
I stopped taking BC a few years ago because it had such an effect on my mood but I've sort of resigned myself to starting up with it again.
I have anxiety around things in my body that I can't control so the implant is off the table for me anyway and to me this just feels like an implant but worse.
