How to Get ellaOne Online in Leganés

Yes, you can get a private medical consultation for ellaOne from an EU-licensed doctor, for patients in Leganés, Spain. Hi-Doctor offers a secure online service to assess your eligibility for ellaOne, the emergency contraceptive pill. The consultation costs 35€, and if appropriate, you'll receive a prescription in under 24 hours. Hi-Doctor connects with the local prescription system in Spain: if the doctor approves, the prescription goes through that country's own prescription system, and the pharmacist reviews it and decides whether to dispense.

How it works: get your consultation in 4 steps

  1. Fill out our secure online medical questionnaire. This takes only 2–3 minutes. You will also pay the 35€ consultation fee at this step.
  2. A licensed EU doctor will privately review your case. If the doctor determines that ellaOne is not appropriate for you, your fee is refunded automatically — there's no risk.
  3. If approved, you will receive a valid electronic prescription (a PDF file) within 24 hours. This will be available in your secure Hi-Doctor account and sent directly to your email.
  4. Print the PDF or show it on your phone. Hi Doctor connects with the local prescription system in Spain: if the doctor approves, the prescription goes through that country's own prescription system, and the pharmacist reviews it and decides whether to dispense. Please note that pharmacists retain the right to refuse dispensing.

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, the timing of unprotected intercourse, and your current cycle stage. ellaOne is an emergency contraceptive effective within 120 hours (5 days) of unprotected sex. It is not a regular form of contraception or an abortion pill.

The doctor looks for factors like:

  • Timing since unprotected intercourse (must be within 120 hours).
  • Any known allergies to ulipristal acetate or other ingredients.
  • Existing medical conditions or medications that might interact with ellaOne.
  • Whether you are pregnant or breastfeeding.

What ellaOne actually does (and doesn't do)

ellaOne (ulipristal acetate) is an emergency contraceptive that works primarily by delaying or inhibiting ovulation. This prevents the release of an egg from the ovary, thus preventing fertilisation. It is most effective when taken as soon as possible after unprotected sex, but can be effective for up to 120 hours (5 days).

Important points about ellaOne:

  • It is NOT a regular contraceptive method and should not replace routine birth control.
  • It does NOT protect against sexually transmitted infections (STIs).
  • It is NOT an abortion pill; it will not terminate an existing pregnancy.
  • Its effectiveness decreases the longer you wait to take it.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medicines, ellaOne can cause side effects, though not everybody gets them. Most side effects are mild and temporary.

Common side effects include:

  • Headache, nausea, abdominal pain.
  • Menstrual disturbances (e.g., changes to your next period).
  • Dizziness, fatigue, mood swings.

You should seek immediate medical attention if you experience severe abdominal pain (especially if accompanied by shoulder pain), unusual vaginal bleeding, or signs of an allergic reaction (e.g., rash, itching, swelling of the face/throat, severe dizziness, trouble breathing). If you vomit within three hours of taking ellaOne, you may need to take another dose; consult a doctor.
