Yes, you can get a private medical consultation for ellaOne from an EU-licensed doctor in Germany. If deemed appropriate, you receive a prescription that may be accepted at EU pharmacies. The entire process is online, costs 35 €, and a prescription is issued within 24 hours.

How it works — get your consultation in 4 steps

  1. Fill the online medical questionnaire: Complete our secure medical questionnaire in just 2–3 minutes. This provides the doctor with all necessary information for a thorough assessment. Pay the 35 € consultation fee securely.
  2. Doctor reviews your case: A licensed EU doctor individually reviews your information in private. If the doctor determines that ellaOne is NOT appropriate for you, your consultation fee is refunded automatically — no risk to you.
  3. Receive your prescription: If approved, you receive a valid electronic prescription (PDF file) in your secure Hi-Doctor account within 24 hours. You will also receive an email notification that your prescription is available.
  4. Collect your medication: Print the PDF or show it on your phone — present it at any pharmacy in the EU to collect your ellaOne. While the valid electronic prescription is designed for EU-wide recognition under Directive 2011/24/EU, pharmacists retain the right to refuse dispensation. Outside Spain, a locally-marketed equivalent may be dispensed.

Who qualifies for treatment

Our EU-licensed doctors assess each case individually to ensure ellaOne is safe and appropriate for you. They will review your medical history, including any allergies, current medications, and pre-existing conditions like severe asthma or liver issues. Key factors considered include the timing of unprotected intercourse (ellaOne is effective within 120 hours), your menstrual cycle stage, and any previous use of emergency contraception.

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. It is effective for up to 120 hours (5 days) after unprotected intercourse. It is NOT a regular form of contraception, nor is it an abortion pill; it does not terminate an existing pregnancy. It also does not protect against sexually transmitted infections.

Side effects and when to stop

Common side effects of ellaOne are usually mild and temporary, including headache, nausea, abdominal pain, and menstrual irregularities. If you experience severe abdominal pain, unusual vaginal bleeding, or suspect you might be pregnant, seek immediate medical attention. Always follow your doctor's instructions and read the patient leaflet carefully.
