How to Get ellaOne Online in Athens

Yes, you can get a private medical consultation for ellaOne from an EU-licensed doctor in Athens. Hi-Doctor provides a secure, online pathway to assess your need for emergency contraception. For a flat fee of 35 €, an EU-licensed doctor reviews your case, and if appropriate, issues a valid electronic prescription within 24 hours. You can then present this prescription at a pharmacy, such as one in Athens, where the pharmacist reviews it and decides whether it can be dispensed.

How it works: get your consultation in 4 steps

  1. Fill the online medical questionnaire: Complete our brief, secure questionnaire in 2–3 minutes, detailing your medical history and specific needs. Pay the 35 € consultation fee securely.
  2. Doctor reviews your case: An EU-licensed doctor privately assesses your information. If the doctor determines ellaOne is not appropriate for you, your consultation fee is refunded automatically – you pay nothing.
  3. Receive your prescription: If approved, you get a valid electronic prescription (PDF file) sent directly to your Hi-Doctor account and by email within 24 hours.
  4. Collect your medication: Print the PDF or show it on your phone at a pharmacy to collect your ellaOne; the pharmacist reviews it and decides whether it can be dispensed.

Who qualifies for treatment

Our EU-licensed doctors review each case individually to ensure ellaOne is safe and appropriate for you. They consider factors such as:

  • The timing of unprotected intercourse (ellaOne is effective up to 120 hours/5 days after).
  • Your menstrual cycle stage.
  • Any existing medical conditions or medications that might interact with ellaOne.
  • Known allergies to ulipristal acetate or other ingredients.

The doctor's assessment prioritizes your health and safety, ensuring you receive the most suitable emergency contraception.

What ellaOne actually does (and doesn't do)

ellaOne (ulipristal acetate) is an emergency contraceptive that works by delaying or inhibiting ovulation. It is effective for up to 120 hours (5 days) after unprotected intercourse.

Important facts about ellaOne:

  • It is not a regular method of contraception.
  • It is not an abortion pill; it does not work if you are already pregnant.
  • It does not protect against sexually transmitted infections (STIs).

Always use ellaOne as soon as possible after unprotected sex for maximum effectiveness.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medicines, ellaOne can cause side effects, though not everybody gets them. Common side effects include headache, nausea, abdominal pain, and menstrual disturbances (e.g., changes in period timing or flow). These are usually mild and temporary.

Seek immediate medical attention if you experience:

  • Severe abdominal pain.
  • Unusual or prolonged vaginal bleeding.
  • Symptoms of an allergic reaction (e.g., rash, itching, swelling, severe dizziness, trouble breathing).

Always read the patient information leaflet provided with your medication. If you are concerned about any side effects, consult a healthcare professional.
