How to Get ellaOne Online in Brussels

Yes, you can get a private medical consultation for ellaOne, the emergency contraceptive pill, from an EU-licensed doctor online in Brussels. Hi-Doctor offers a secure, confidential service where doctors review your case and, if appropriate, issue a prescription within 24 hours. The consultation costs a flat 35 €. Hi Doctor connects with the local prescription system in Belgium: if the doctor approves, the prescription goes through that country's own prescription system, and the pharmacist reviews it and decides whether to dispense.

This means no waiting rooms, no in-person visits, and no hassle. Our service is designed for adult EU patients seeking fast, discreet access to emergency contraception.

How it works: get your consultation in 4 steps

  1. Fill the online medical questionnaire: Complete our secure, private medical questionnaire in 2–3 minutes. This provides the doctor with all necessary information for a clinical assessment. You also pay the 35 € consultation fee at this stage.
  2. Doctor reviews your case: A licensed EU doctor individually reviews your answers. If the doctor determines that ellaOne is not appropriate for you, your fee is refunded automatically – you pay nothing. This is our no-risk money-back guarantee.
  3. Receive your valid electronic prescription: If approved, you receive a valid electronic prescription (a downloadable PDF file) in your Hi-Doctor secure account within 24 hours. You will also receive an email notification. Hi Doctor connects with the local prescription system in Belgium: if the doctor approves, the prescription goes through that country's own prescription system, and the pharmacist reviews it and decides whether to dispense.
  4. Collect your medication: Print the PDF or show it on your phone at a pharmacy in Belgium to collect your ellaOne. Hi Doctor connects with the local prescription system in Belgium: if the doctor approves, the prescription goes through that country's own prescription system, and the pharmacist reviews it and decides whether to dispense.

Who qualifies for treatment

Our EU-licensed doctors assess each case individually to ensure ellaOne is safe and appropriate for you. They look for specific criteria, including:

  • The timing of unprotected intercourse (ellaOne is effective up to 120 hours, or 5 days, after).
  • Your medical history, including any current medications or allergies.
  • Whether you are an adult EU patient.

The doctor's clinical assessment is paramount. They will determine if ellaOne is the right emergency contraception for your situation based on the information you provide in the questionnaire.

What ellaOne actually does (and doesn't do)

ellaOne (ulipristal acetate) is an emergency contraceptive pill that works by delaying or inhibiting ovulation. It is effective for up to 120 hours (5 days) after unprotected sex. It is NOT a regular form of contraception and should not be used as such. It is also NOT an abortion pill and will not work if you are already pregnant.

ellaOne is effective within 120 hours (5 days) of unprotected intercourse. For best results, take it as soon as possible.

An EU-licensed doctor reviews timing, your medical history and possible interactions and decides which option is appropriate. €35 one-off consultation.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, ellaOne can cause side effects, though not everyone experiences them. Common side effects may include headache, nausea, abdominal pain, and menstrual disturbances. These are usually mild and temporary. If you experience severe abdominal pain, unusual vaginal bleeding, or any signs of an allergic reaction, seek immediate medical attention. Always read the patient information leaflet provided with your medication.
