How it works — get your consultation in 4 steps

  1. Fill the online medical questionnaire: Complete a detailed, private medical questionnaire in just 2–3 minutes and pay the 35 € consultation fee securely.
  2. Doctor reviews your case: An EU-licensed doctor privately assesses your information. If the doctor determines Ulipristal is not appropriate for you, your consultation fee is refunded automatically — you pay nothing.

Who qualifies for treatment

Our EU-licensed doctors assess each case individually to ensure Ulipristal is the safe and appropriate choice for you. The doctor looks for specific criteria related to emergency contraception:

  • Timing: Ulipristal (ellaOne) is effective within 120 hours (5 days) of unprotected intercourse. If more than 120 hours have passed, Ulipristal may not be suitable.
  • Medical history: The doctor reviews your medical history, including any current medications, allergies, or pre-existing conditions that might contraindicate Ulipristal.
  • Cycle stage: Your menstrual cycle stage is considered to determine the most effective emergency contraception.

The online questionnaire covers all necessary details for the doctor's clinical assessment, ensuring a thorough and private review.

What Ulipristal actually does (and doesn't do)

Ulipristal is a highly effective form of emergency contraception, often referred to as the 'morning-after pill.' It works by delaying or inhibiting ovulation, preventing the release of an egg from the ovary. This means fertilization cannot occur. It is most effective when taken as soon as possible after unprotected intercourse, but can be taken up to 120 hours (5 days) afterwards.

Ulipristal is not a regular form of birth control, nor is it an abortion pill. It does not protect against sexually transmitted infections.

It will not work if you are already pregnant, and it should not be used as a routine contraceptive method. Always use Ulipristal under medical guidance.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, Ulipristal can cause side effects, though not everyone experiences them. Common side effects can include:

  • Headache
  • Nausea or abdominal pain
  • Dizziness
  • Fatigue
  • Menstrual disturbances (e.g., changes in bleeding patterns)

These side effects are usually mild and temporary. You should seek immediate medical attention if you experience severe abdominal pain, unusual vaginal bleeding, or symptoms of an allergic reaction (e.g., rash, swelling, severe dizziness).
