How to Get ellaOne Online in Leuven

Yes, you can get a doctor's assessment for ellaOne online in Leuven. Hi-Doctor offers a secure, private, and efficient way to consult with an EU-licensed doctor for emergency contraception. For a flat fee of 35 €, you can have your case reviewed, and if appropriate, receive a valid electronic prescription within 24 hours. This prescription is designed for EU-wide recognition, though pharmacists retain the right to refuse dispensing.

How it works — get your consultation in 4 steps

1. Fill out our comprehensive online medical questionnaire. This takes just 2–3 minutes and allows our doctors to understand your situation. Securely pay the 35 € consultation fee.
2. A licensed EU doctor privately reviews your medical information. This clinical assessment ensures ellaOne is safe and appropriate for you. If the doctor determines treatment is not suitable, your fee is refunded automatically — no risk to you.
3. If approved, you will receive a REMPE electronic prescription (PDF file) directly in your secure 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. Pharmacists review the PDF and may dispense a locally-marketed equivalent, but they retain the right to refuse.

Who qualifies for treatment

Our EU-licensed doctors assess each case individually to ensure ellaOne is the correct and safe option for you. They review your medical history, current medications, and the timing of unprotected intercourse. Key considerations include:

• The timing since unprotected sex: ellaOne is effective within 120 hours (5 days).
• Your general health and any pre-existing conditions that might contraindicate its use.
• Other medications you may be taking that could interact with ellaOne.
• Confirmation that you are not already pregnant.

The doctor's primary goal is your safety and ensuring the most effective emergency contraception is prescribed.

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. This prevents a sperm and egg from meeting and fertilising. It is most effective when taken as soon as possible after unprotected intercourse, up to a maximum of 120 hours (5 days).

ellaOne is NOT an abortion pill. It will not work if you are already pregnant. It is also NOT a regular form of contraception and does not protect against sexually transmitted infections.

Its purpose is solely to prevent pregnancy after a single instance of unprotected sex or contraceptive failure.

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 (e.g., earlier or later period). These are usually mild and temporary. If you experience severe abdominal pain, unusual vaginal bleeding, or symptoms that persist or worsen, you should seek medical advice immediately. Always read the patient leaflet provided with your medication.
