How to Get ellaOne Online in Prague

Yes, you can get a private medical consultation for ellaOne from an EU-licensed doctor online, even if you are in Prague. Hi-Doctor offers a secure, convenient way to get an assessment for emergency contraception. For a one-off fee of 35 €, an EU-licensed doctor reviews your case. If appropriate, you receive a REMPE electronic prescription in under 24 hours, which can be presented at EU pharmacies.

How it works — get your consultation in 4 steps

1. Fill the online medical questionnaire: Provide the doctor with the necessary information and pay the 35 € consultation fee.
2. Doctor reviews your case: A licensed EU doctor privately reviews your medical questionnaire. If the doctor determines the treatment is NOT appropriate for you, your fee is refunded automatically — no risk.
3. Receive your prescription: If approved, you receive a REMPE electronic prescription (a downloadable PDF file) in your secure Hi-Doctor account and by email within 24 hours.
4. Present your prescription: Print the PDF or show it on your phone — present it at any pharmacy in the EU, including those in Prague, to request the medication. Pharmacists retain the right to refuse.

Who qualifies for treatment

The doctor carefully reviews your medical history and the timing of unprotected intercourse to determine if ellaOne is the appropriate emergency contraception for you. They will assess factors such as:

• The time elapsed since unprotected sex (ellaOne is effective within 120 hours, or 5 days).
• Your menstrual cycle stage.
• Any existing medical conditions or medications that might interact with ellaOne.
• Potential contraindications to ulipristal acetate.

The doctor's primary concern is your safety and ensuring you receive the most effective 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 by delaying or inhibiting ovulation. This prevents the release of an egg from the ovary, thereby preventing fertilisation.

• Effective window: EllaOne is effective for up to 120 hours (5 days) after unprotected intercourse. For comparison, levonorgestrel-based emergency contraceptives are effective within 72 hours (3 days).
• Not a regular contraceptive: It is not intended for regular birth control and should not replace your usual contraceptive method.
• Not an abortion pill: EllaOne does not terminate an existing pregnancy. It only works to prevent pregnancy from occurring.
• No STI protection: It does not protect against sexually transmitted infections (STIs).

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medicines, ellaOne can cause side effects, although not everybody gets them. Common side effects may include headache, nausea, abdominal pain, and menstrual disturbances. These are usually mild and temporary.

You should seek immediate medical advice if you experience:

• Severe lower abdominal pain, especially if accompanied by shoulder pain, which could indicate an ectopic pregnancy.
• An allergic reaction, such as rash, itching, swelling, severe dizziness, or trouble breathing.
• Any unusual or severe symptoms.
