Contraception and HRT coverage in Yukon

What Yukon's public drug programs cover for contraception and menopause hormone therapy (HRT — clinically, menopausal hormone therapy or MHT), sourced from the province's own program pages.

Contraception

Free

Free at the pharmacy.

FREE under the Yukon National Pharmacare Program (YNPP) for eligible YT residents (valid Yukon Health Care Insurance Plan coverage, not covered by specific federal drug programs) — "covered medications are free." Rollout announced for no later than January 2026; page confirms live coverage, last updated April 15, 2026.

What this means for what you pay

You should be able to get this at $0 at the pharmacy under the program above, with no separate premium or income test — bring your provincial health card.

Menopause hormone therapy (MHT / HRT)

Not covered

Not covered by any known public program.

NOT covered by YNPP. The program explicitly covers only contraceptives and diabetes medications on the Yukon Drug Formulary; MHT/estrogen products are absent from that list, so they fall outside this free program (would need the separate, non-free Yukon Pharmacare/Chronic Disease Program).

What this means for what you pay

No public drug program in this province currently covers this — budget for the full cash price shown on our price pages, the same price an uninsured resident would pay.
