Here's how you get a private medical consultation for Levonorgestrel from an EU-licensed doctor: 35 € one-off online consultation, prescription in under 24 hours, and recognised for pickup at EU pharmacies.

How it works: get your consultation in 4 steps

  1. Fill the online medical questionnaire: Complete a brief, secure medical questionnaire (takes 2–3 minutes) and pay the 35 € consultation fee.
  2. Doctor reviews your case: A licensed EU doctor reviews your information in private. If the doctor determines the treatment is NOT appropriate for you, your fee is refunded automatically — you pay nothing.
  3. Receive your prescription: If approved, you receive a valid electronic prescription (PDF file) in your Hi-Doctor account and by email within 24 hours.
  4. Collect your medication: Print the PDF or show it on your phone and present it at any pharmacy in the EU. Pharmacists retain the right to refuse to dispense.

Who qualifies for treatment

The doctor reviews your individual case to ensure Levonorgestrel is safe and appropriate for you as emergency contraception. Key factors include:

  • Timing: Levonorgestrel is effective when taken within 72 hours (3 days) of unprotected intercourse.
  • Medical history: The doctor assesses any pre-existing conditions or medications that might interact with Levonorgestrel.
  • Allergies: You will be asked about any known allergies to medications.
  • Previous use: Information on recent use of emergency contraception is also considered.

The doctor's clinical assessment is crucial to ensure your safety and the effectiveness of the treatment.

What Levonorgestrel actually does (and doesn't do)

Levonorgestrel is an emergency contraceptive pill, often called the 'morning-after pill'. It works by delaying or inhibiting ovulation (the release of an egg from the ovary). If ovulation has already occurred, it will not be effective.

Important facts about Levonorgestrel:

  • It is effective within 72 hours of unprotected intercourse. For longer windows, ulipristal (ellaOne) may be considered, which is effective up to 120 hours.
  • It is not a regular method of contraception.
  • It is not an abortion pill and will not terminate an existing pregnancy.
  • It does not protect against sexually transmitted infections (STIs).

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, Levonorgestrel can cause side effects, though not everyone experiences them. Common side effects can include nausea, headache, abdominal pain, and breast tenderness. Your next period might be early or late, and lighter or heavier than usual.

Seek immediate medical attention if you experience:

  • Severe lower abdominal pain (especially 3-5 weeks after taking the pill), as this could indicate an ectopic pregnancy.
  • Unusual or prolonged bleeding.
  • Any symptoms of an allergic reaction (e.g., rash, itching, swelling, severe dizziness, trouble breathing).

Always read the patient information leaflet provided with your medication for a full list of side effects and warnings.
