Yes, you can get an online doctor's assessment for ellaOne emergency contraception in Palermo, Italy. Hi-Doctor connects you with an EU-licensed doctor who reviews your case quickly and discreetly. For a flat fee of 35 €, you can receive a valid electronic prescription within 24 hours, which you can present at pharmacies across the EU.
How it works: get your consultation in 4 steps
- Fill the online medical questionnaire (2–3 minutes) and securely pay the 35 € consultation fee.
- A licensed EU doctor reviews your case in private. If the doctor determines the treatment is NOT appropriate for you, your fee is refunded automatically, so there is no risk.
- If approved, you receive a valid electronic prescription (PDF file) in your secure Hi-Doctor account within 24 hours. You will also receive an email notification that your prescription is ready.
- Print the PDF or show it on your phone and present it to a pharmacist in Italy to collect the medication. Hi Doctor connects with Italy’s local prescription system: if the doctor approves, the prescription goes through that system. Pharmacists retain the right to refuse dispensing or may offer a locally marketed equivalent.
Who qualifies for treatment
When you complete the online questionnaire, the doctor reviews your medical history and specific circumstances to ensure ellaOne is safe and effective for you. Key factors the doctor considers include:
- The timing of unprotected intercourse (ellaOne is effective up to 120 hours/5 days after).
- Your current menstrual cycle and any recent contraceptive use.
- Any pre-existing medical conditions, especially liver issues or severe asthma.
- Other medications you may be taking that could interact with ellaOne.
- If you are pregnant or breastfeeding.
This careful assessment ensures patient safety and appropriate use of emergency contraception.
What ellaOne actually does (and doesn't do)
ellaOne (ulipristal acetate) is an emergency contraceptive pill, often called the 'morning-after pill'. It works by delaying or inhibiting ovulation, preventing the release of an egg. It is most effective when taken as soon as possible after unprotected sex, and can be used up to 120 hours (5 days) afterwards. It is important to understand that ellaOne:
- Is NOT a regular method of contraception.
- Does NOT protect against sexually transmitted infections (STIs).
- Does NOT cause an abortion; it prevents pregnancy from occurring.
Side effects and when to stop
Like all medicines, ellaOne can cause side effects, though not everybody gets them. Common side effects include headache, nausea, abdominal pain, and menstrual disturbances (e.g., changes in period timing). These are usually mild and temporary. You should seek immediate medical advice if you experience:
- Severe abdominal pain.
- Unusual or prolonged vaginal bleeding.
- Symptoms of an allergic reaction (e.g., rash, itching, swelling).
Always read the patient information leaflet provided with the medication. If you vomit within three hours of taking ellaOne, contact a healthcare professional as you may need another dose.
