UTI treatment is particularly time-sensitive — delays in Hoyland through standard GP pathways can allow uncomplicated infections to become complicated

Older Hoyland women with post-menopausal vaginal health concerns are often reluctant to raise these with a GP — a pharmacist consultation is more accessible

Frequently Asked Questions

Questions about Women's Health Services from Hoyland residents.

What women's health conditions can the pharmacy in Brampton treat for Hoyland residents?

Can Hoyland women under 16 or over 64 with a UTI access women's health services at the pharmacy?

How do I get from Hoyland to the women's health clinic in Brampton?

Is thrush always the cause of vaginal itching and discharge? Can the Brampton pharmacist help me tell the difference?

No — thrush and bacterial vaginosis (BV) have different symptoms and require different treatments. Thrush typically causes a thick white discharge and itching; BV typically produces a thin grey-white discharge with a distinctive fishy odour. Treating BV with antifungal thrush treatment (and vice versa) will not work. Our pharmacist can assess your symptoms and identify the most likely cause.
