Who qualifies for treatment
Our EU-licensed doctors assess each case individually through your medical questionnaire. They look for specific criteria to ensure ellaOne is safe and effective for you. This includes:
- The timing of unprotected intercourse: ellaOne is effective within 120 hours (5 days).
- Your menstrual cycle stage.
- Any existing medical conditions or medications that might interact with ellaOne.
- Confirmation that you are seeking emergency contraception, not a regular birth control method or abortion pill.
The doctor's clinical assessment is crucial to ensure your safety and the appropriateness of the treatment.
What ellaOne actually does (and doesn't do)
ellaOne (ulipristal acetate) is an emergency contraceptive, commonly known as the 'morning-after pill.' It works primarily by delaying or inhibiting ovulation, preventing the release of an egg. It is most effective when taken as soon as possible after unprotected sexual intercourse, but can be taken up to 120 hours (5 days) afterwards.
- It does not: terminate an existing pregnancy, protect against sexually transmitted infections, or act as a regular form of contraception.
- It does: offer a post-coital option to prevent pregnancy when taken within the specified time frame.
Side effects and when to stop
Like all medications, ellaOne can cause side effects, though not everyone experiences them. Common side effects include headache, stomach pain, nausea, and menstrual disturbances (e.g., early or late period). These are usually mild and temporary.
You should seek immediate medical attention if:
- You experience severe abdominal pain, especially if accompanied by fainting or shoulder pain, as this could indicate an ectopic pregnancy.
- Your period is more than 7 days late or unusually light/heavy, which could suggest pregnancy.
- You have any signs of an allergic reaction, such as rash, itching, swelling, severe dizziness, or trouble breathing.
