Who qualifies for treatment

Our EU-licensed doctors review each case to ensure ellaOne is safe and appropriate for you. They will assess your medical history, current medications, and the timing of unprotected intercourse. EllaOne is effective within 120 hours (5 days) of unprotected sex. The doctor will consider:

• The exact timing of unprotected intercourse.
• Your menstrual cycle stage.
• Any existing medical conditions or allergies.
• Other medications you are currently taking that might interact with ellaOne.

The doctor's clinical assessment determines if ellaOne is the right emergency contraceptive for your situation.

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 from the ovary. It is most effective when taken as soon as possible after unprotected intercourse, but can be effective for up to 120 hours (5 days).

Important: ellaOne is not a regular form of contraception, nor is it an abortion pill. It will not terminate an existing pregnancy. It also 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 attention if you experience severe abdominal pain, unusual vaginal bleeding, or signs of an allergic reaction (e.g., rash, itching, swelling, severe dizziness, trouble breathing). Always consult a healthcare professional if you have concerns about side effects or if your period is more than 7 days late after taking ellaOne.
