Are you in Catania and need ellaOne emergency contraception? Yes, you can get a doctor's assessment for ellaOne online, quickly and discreetly. Hi-Doctor connects you with EU-licensed doctors who can issue a valid prescription. The entire process costs just 35 €, and if treatment is appropriate, you'll receive your prescription within 24 hours, ready for pickup at any EU pharmacy, including those in Catania.

How it works: get your consultation in 4 steps

  1. Fill the online medical questionnaire (2–3 minutes) and pay the 35 € consultation fee securely.
  2. A licensed EU doctor reviews your case in private. If the doctor determines the treatment is NOT appropriate for you, your fee is refunded automatically — there's no risk.
  3. If approved, you receive a valid electronic prescription (PDF file) in your Hi-Doctor account and by email within 24 hours.
  4. Print the PDF or show it on your phone — present it at any pharmacy in the EU to collect the medication. Pharmacists retain the right to refuse to dispense.

Who qualifies for treatment

Our EU-licensed doctors review each case individually based on your medical history and specific circumstances. They look for:

  • The timing of unprotected intercourse (ellaOne is effective up to 120 hours, or 5 days, after).
  • Your menstrual cycle stage.
  • Any existing medical conditions or medications that might contraindicate ellaOne.
  • Confirmation that ellaOne is for emergency contraception and not as a regular birth control method or abortion pill.

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 sex. It is NOT an abortion pill and will not work if you are already pregnant. It does not protect against sexually transmitted infections.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, ellaOne can cause side effects, though not everybody gets them. Common side effects include headache, nausea, abdominal pain, and menstrual disturbances. If you experience severe abdominal pain, unusual vaginal bleeding, or any signs of an allergic reaction, seek immediate medical attention. Always follow your doctor's advice and the instructions provided with the medication.
