Yes, you can get a private medical consultation for Ulipristal (the morning-after pill) from an EU-licensed doctor online, even if you are in Palermo. Hi-Doctor provides a secure, confidential service where your case is reviewed by a qualified medical professional. If deemed appropriate, you receive an electronic prescription within 24 hours. The consultation costs 35 €, and the prescription is designed for EU-wide recognition.

How it works: get your consultation in 4 steps

  1. Fill the online medical questionnaire: Complete a detailed, secure medical questionnaire in 2–3 minutes and pay the 35 € consultation fee.
  2. Doctor reviews your case: A licensed EU doctor privately reviews your questionnaire. If the doctor determines that Ulipristal 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 (a downloadable PDF file) directly 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 and may dispense a locally-marketed equivalent.

Who qualifies for treatment

The doctor assesses your eligibility for Ulipristal as emergency contraception. They look for specific criteria, including:

  • Timing of unprotected intercourse: Ulipristal is effective up to 120 hours (5 days) after unprotected sex.
  • Cycle stage: The doctor considers where you are in your menstrual cycle.
  • Medical history: Certain conditions or medications can make Ulipristal unsuitable. The doctor reviews your full medical history for contraindications.
  • Current pregnancy status: Ulipristal is not an abortion pill and will not work if you are already pregnant.

The doctor's clinical assessment ensures your safety and the appropriateness of the treatment.

What Ulipristal actually does (and doesn't do)

Ulipristal acetate (often sold as ellaOne) is an emergency contraceptive. It works by delaying or inhibiting ovulation, preventing the release of an egg from the ovary. It is most effective when taken as soon as possible after unprotected intercourse, up to 120 hours (5 days).

Important points:

  • It is NOT a regular form of contraception.
  • It does NOT protect against sexually transmitted infections (STIs).
  • It is NOT an abortion pill and will not terminate an existing pregnancy.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, Ulipristal can cause side effects, though not everyone experiences them. Common side effects may include headaches, nausea, abdominal pain, and menstrual disturbances. Your next period might be earlier or later than expected.

Seek immediate medical attention if you experience:

  • Severe abdominal pain.
  • Unusual vaginal bleeding not typical of your period.
  • Symptoms of an allergic reaction (e.g., rash, itching, swelling, severe dizziness, trouble breathing).
