Is there a chewable birth control pill?

I want to go on the pill but I can’t swallow tablets, I have seen there is a chewable birth control pill. Has anyone ever got given this from a doctor? Is it available in the uk? I would just feel to embarrassed asking if it isn’t available in the uk

Just ask, nothing to be embarrassed about at all and I knew a few folk the same. Tbh it's likely something you'll need to explain a few times down the line for meds etc so might as well get comfy with it.
