Who qualifies for treatment
To qualify for ellaOne, the doctor will assess several factors based on your medical questionnaire. They look for specific criteria to ensure ellaOne is safe and effective for you. This includes the timing of unprotected intercourse (it must be within 120 hours, or 5 days, for ellaOne to be effective), your medical history, any current medications, and allergies. The doctor's clinical assessment ensures the treatment is appropriate for your individual health needs.
What ellaOne actually does (and doesn't do)
ellaOne (ulipristal acetate) is an emergency contraceptive, commonly known as the 'morning-after pill.' It works by delaying or inhibiting ovulation, preventing the release of an egg. This stops fertilisation from occurring after unprotected sex. It is effective for up to 120 hours (5 days) after unprotected intercourse. ellaOne is NOT a regular method of contraception, nor is it an abortion pill. It will not work if you are already pregnant, and it does not protect against sexually transmitted infections.
Side effects and when to stop
Like all medications, ellaOne can cause side effects, though not everyone experiences them. Common side effects include headache, nausea, abdominal pain, and menstrual disturbances. These are usually mild and temporary. You should seek immediate medical advice if you experience severe abdominal pain, unusual vaginal bleeding, or any signs of an allergic reaction. Always follow the doctor's instructions and read the patient leaflet carefully.
