How to Get ellaOne Online in Cyprus

Yes, you can get a private medical consultation for ellaOne from an EU-licensed doctor, even if you are in Cyprus. Hi-Doctor provides a fast, secure, and confidential way to access emergency contraception. For a flat fee of 35 €, an EU-licensed doctor reviews your case online, and if appropriate, issues a valid electronic prescription within 24 hours. You can present this prescription at a pharmacy. 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 a short, private medical questionnaire in 2–3 minutes. This provides the doctor with the necessary information to assess your case. You will also pay the 35 € consultation fee at this stage.
  2. Doctor reviews your case: An EU-licensed doctor confidentially reviews your medical information. If the doctor determines that treatment is NOT appropriate for you, your fee is refunded automatically – no risk to you.
  3. Receive your prescription: If approved, you will receive a valid electronic prescription (PDF file) directly in your secure Hi-Doctor account and by email within 24 hours.
  4. Collect your medication: Print the PDF or show it on your phone and present it at a pharmacy to collect your prescribed medication. The pharmacist reviews it and decides whether it can be dispensed, and may dispense a locally-marketed equivalent. The prescription includes the details pharmacies need.

  • Affordable: A flat 35 € consultation fee with a money-back guarantee.

Who qualifies for treatment

The doctor assesses your eligibility for ellaOne based on your medical history and the timing of unprotected intercourse. ellaOne is an emergency contraceptive effective within 120 hours (5 days) of unprotected sex. The doctor will review factors such as:

  • The exact time frame since unprotected intercourse.
  • Your current menstrual cycle stage.
  • Any existing medical conditions or medications that might interact with ellaOne.
  • Previous use of emergency contraception.

This ensures that ellaOne is the safest and most appropriate option for your situation.

What ellaOne actually does (and doesn't do)

ellaOne (ulipristal acetate) is an emergency contraceptive. It works by delaying or inhibiting ovulation, preventing the release of an egg from the ovary. It is most effective when taken as soon as possible after unprotected sex, and its efficacy decreases over time. ellaOne is effective for up to 120 hours (5 days) after unprotected intercourse.

It is important to understand that ellaOne:

  • Is NOT a regular method of contraception.
  • Does NOT protect against sexually transmitted infections (STIs).
  • Does NOT cause an abortion; it prevents pregnancy from occurring.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, ellaOne can cause side effects, though not everyone experiences them. Common side effects include headache, stomach pain, nausea, and menstrual disturbances (e.g., earlier or later period). These are usually mild and temporary.

You should seek medical attention if you experience severe abdominal pain, unusual vaginal bleeding, or if your period is more than a week late after taking ellaOne. Always consult a doctor if you have concerns about side effects or your health after taking emergency contraception.
