摘要

Sexual and reproductive health is an important aspect of a woman’s health and her ability to access safe, effective, affordable, and acceptable forms of fertility regulation, including contraception. This commentary piece introduces the barriers and facilitators to community pharmacists’ practising in sexual and reproductive health, and compares and contrasts interventions taking place internationally, compared to key clinical trials occurring in Australia on an expanded scope of community pharmacy practice, in prescribing the oral contraceptive pill (OCP). Modelling the practices already occurring in other high-income countries, Australia is striving to remove barriers and improve accessibility to contraceptive care, by enabling community pharmacists to prescribe contraception.
