How to Get ellaOne Online in Milan

Yes, you can get a private medical consultation for ellaOne from an EU-licensed doctor, even if you are in Milan, Italy. Hi-Doctor provides a secure, online service where an EU-licensed doctor reviews your case for just 35€. If appropriate, you receive a digital prescription in under 24 hours; it goes through Italy'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 (takes 2–3 minutes) and pay the 35€ consultation fee.
  2. An EU-licensed doctor reviews your case privately. If the doctor determines ellaOne is not appropriate for you, your consultation fee is refunded automatically — you pay nothing.
  3. If approved, you receive a valid electronic prescription (PDF file) in your Hi-Doctor account and by email within 24 hours.
  4. Print the PDF or show it on your phone at a pharmacy in Italy; the prescription goes through Italy's own prescription system, and the pharmacist reviews it and decides whether to dispense your medication, and may offer a locally marketed equivalent.

Who qualifies for treatment

Our EU-licensed doctors assess each case individually to ensure ellaOne is safe and appropriate for you. They will look for key information in your medical questionnaire, including:

  • The time elapsed since unprotected intercourse (ellaOne is effective within 120 hours).
  • Your medical history, including any allergies, liver conditions, or severe asthma.
  • Any medications you are currently taking that might interact with ellaOne.
  • Whether you are pregnant or breastfeeding.

The doctor's primary concern is your health and safety. They will only issue a prescription if it is clinically appropriate.

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 fertilisation if unprotected intercourse has already occurred.

  • Effective within 120 hours (5 days) of unprotected sex.
  • It is not an abortion pill. ellaOne does not work if you are already pregnant.
  • It is not a regular contraceptive method. It should only be used in emergencies and does not protect against sexually transmitted infections.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medicines, ellaOne can cause side effects, though not everybody gets them. Common side effects may include:

  • Headache
  • Stomach pain or nausea
  • Dizziness
  • Breast tenderness
  • Mood changes

These side effects are usually mild and temporary. If you experience severe abdominal pain, unusual vaginal bleeding, or symptoms of an allergic reaction, seek immediate medical attention. Always read the patient information leaflet provided with your medication.
