How does the morning after pill consultation work with I-Prescribe?

You start by completing a private online consultation about when unprotected sex happened, your menstrual cycle, contraception use, medicines, allergies, pregnancy or breastfeeding status and any safeguarding or sexual health concerns. Your answers are reviewed by an appropriate healthcare professional. Emergency contraception is supplied only if it is clinically suitable, safe and appropriate.

Am I suitable for emergency contraception after an online consultation?

Suitability depends on when unprotected sex happened, your cycle timing, pregnancy risk, current contraception, BMI or weight, breastfeeding status, current medicines, allergies, previous emergency contraception use and whether you need urgent copper IUD referral or in-person assessment.

Can I get levonorgestrel or ellaOne through I-Prescribe?

Levonorgestrel or ellaOne may be considered after an online consultation, but supply is not guaranteed. The clinical team must confirm which option is appropriate based on timing, medicine interactions, contraception use and individual suitability.

Is the morning after pill available from I-Prescribe Bradford?

Yes. I-Prescribe is based in Bradford and can provide private online consultations for emergency contraception. Treatment is supplied only where clinically suitable after professional review.

What information do I need to provide before emergency contraception is considered?

You may need to provide the date and time of unprotected sex, the first day of your last period, usual cycle length, contraception use, missed pills or failed contraception details, current medicines, allergies, weight or BMI, breastfeeding status and whether there is any STI or safeguarding concern.

Who reviews my emergency contraception consultation?

Your consultation is reviewed by an appropriate healthcare professional who checks timing, pregnancy risk, medicine suitability, interactions and whether oral emergency contraception or copper IUD referral is most appropriate.

Can my emergency contraception request be declined?

Yes. Supply may be declined if oral emergency contraception is not suitable, if timing is outside the appropriate window, if there are medicine interactions, if pregnancy is already likely, if safeguarding concerns are present, or if in-person urgent care is needed.

Is the emergency contraception service confidential?

Yes. Your consultation is handled confidentially. Information is used to assess suitability, support safe supply and advise on aftercare, pregnancy testing and ongoing contraception.

Can I order emergency contraception for someone else?

No. Emergency contraception is patient-specific. The person who needs treatment must complete their own consultation and provide their own medical information.

Timing and eligibility

When emergency contraception can be considered.

9 entries
How soon should I take emergency contraception?

Emergency contraception should be considered as soon as possible after unprotected sex or contraceptive failure. Oral options are time-sensitive, and the most appropriate choice depends on when sex happened and where you are in your cycle.

What is the time limit for levonorgestrel emergency contraception?

Levonorgestrel emergency contraception is generally used as soon as possible and is licensed for use up to 72 hours after unprotected sex. Suitability still depends on your individual circumstances.

What is the time limit for ellaOne?

ellaOne contains ulipristal acetate and may be considered up to 120 hours after unprotected sex. It still works best when taken as soon as possible, and suitability depends on medicines, contraception use and pregnancy risk.

What if unprotected sex happened more than 5 days ago?

Oral emergency contraception may no longer be appropriate if more than 5 days have passed. You should seek urgent advice from a sexual health clinic, GP or emergency contraception provider because a copper IUD may be considered in some circumstances depending on cycle timing.

What if I had unprotected sex more than once in the same cycle?

You must provide all dates and times of unprotected sex. This is important because it affects pregnancy risk, which emergency contraception option may be suitable, and whether a copper IUD referral should be considered.

What if I do not know when ovulation happened?

Many people do not know exactly when ovulation occurred. The consultation asks about your cycle, period dates and timing of sex to estimate risk, but if timing is uncertain a clinician may advise urgent copper IUD referral or pregnancy testing advice.

Can I take emergency contraception before unprotected sex?

No. Emergency contraception is intended for use after unprotected sex or contraceptive failure. It does not provide reliable ongoing protection for future sex in the same cycle.

Can I take emergency contraception twice in one cycle?

Emergency contraception may sometimes be used more than once in the same cycle, but this should be reviewed carefully. You will still need advice about ongoing contraception and pregnancy testing.

What if I vomit after taking emergency contraception?

If you vomit soon after taking emergency contraception, the dose may not have been absorbed. Follow the patient leaflet and contact the pharmacy or a healthcare professional urgently, as another dose or alternative option may be needed.

Levonorgestrel information

Use, timing, interactions and aftercare.

8 entries
What is levonorgestrel emergency contraception?

Levonorgestrel is an emergency contraceptive pill used after unprotected sex or contraceptive failure in suitable patients. It should be taken as soon as possible within the appropriate time window.

How does levonorgestrel work?

Levonorgestrel mainly works by delaying or preventing ovulation. It does not protect against sexually transmitted infections and does not provide reliable ongoing contraception for future sex.

Is levonorgestrel the same as Levonelle?

Levonelle is a brand name for levonorgestrel emergency contraception. Generic levonorgestrel contains the same active ingredient, although products may differ in appearance, manufacturer and packaging.

Can I use levonorgestrel if I am breastfeeding?

Levonorgestrel is generally considered compatible with breastfeeding for many patients, but breastfeeding status should still be declared during the consultation so the most appropriate option and advice can be provided.

Can body weight or BMI affect levonorgestrel?

Higher body weight or BMI may reduce the effectiveness of levonorgestrel in some patients. The consultation may ask about weight or BMI so the clinician can consider whether levonorgestrel, ellaOne or urgent copper IUD referral is more appropriate.

Can enzyme-inducing medicines affect levonorgestrel?

Yes. Some medicines can reduce the effectiveness of levonorgestrel, including certain epilepsy medicines, tuberculosis medicines, HIV medicines and St John's wort. You must declare all medicines and supplements.

Can I start hormonal contraception after levonorgestrel?

Hormonal contraception can often be started or restarted immediately after levonorgestrel, but you may need condoms or to avoid sex until your regular contraception becomes effective. Follow the advice provided with your supply.

What are common levonorgestrel side effects?

Common side effects may include nausea, headache, tiredness, breast tenderness, abdominal discomfort, dizziness, spotting or changes to your next period. Seek advice if symptoms are severe or unusual.

ellaOne information

Ulipristal acetate guidance and suitability.

8 entries
What is ellaOne?

ellaOne is a brand of ulipristal acetate emergency contraception. It may be considered up to 120 hours after unprotected sex in suitable patients.

How does ellaOne work?

ellaOne works mainly by delaying ovulation. It does not protect against sexually transmitted infections and does not provide reliable ongoing contraception for later sex in the same cycle.

Is ellaOne more suitable than levonorgestrel?

ellaOne may be more suitable in some situations, including later presentation within the 120-hour window, but it is not appropriate for everyone. Current medicines, hormonal contraception use, breastfeeding status and pregnancy risk must be assessed.

Can I use ellaOne if I am breastfeeding?

Breastfeeding should be declared during the consultation. Current specialist guidance may allow breastfeeding after a single dose of ulipristal acetate, but the clinical team will advise based on current guidance and your circumstances.

Can I start hormonal contraception straight after ellaOne?

Hormonal contraception can reduce the effectiveness of ellaOne if started too soon. You may be advised to wait 5 days before starting or restarting hormonal contraception and to use condoms or avoid sex until your contraception becomes effective.

Can ellaOne be affected by enzyme-inducing medicines?

Yes. Enzyme-inducing medicines can reduce the effectiveness of ulipristal acetate. If you take or recently took enzyme-inducing medicines, urgent copper IUD referral may be more appropriate.

What are common ellaOne side effects?

Common side effects may include headache, nausea, abdominal pain, period changes, tiredness, dizziness or mood changes. Seek advice if symptoms are severe, persistent or concerning.

Can I take ellaOne and levonorgestrel together?

No. Taking both together is not normally appropriate because they may interfere with each other's intended effect. The clinician will advise which option is more suitable.

Copper IUD referral

Most effective emergency contraception option.

6 entries
What is the copper IUD for emergency contraception?

The copper IUD is a non-hormonal device that can be fitted by a trained clinician for emergency contraception. It is the most effective emergency contraception option and can also provide ongoing contraception once fitted.

Can I get a copper IUD through I-Prescribe?

I-Prescribe does not fit copper IUDs online. If a copper IUD may be the most suitable or most effective option, you may be advised to seek urgent fitting through a sexual health clinic, GP service or local contraception provider.

When is a copper IUD recommended?

A copper IUD may be recommended when the highest level of emergency contraception is needed, when oral options may be less effective, when enzyme-inducing medicines are involved, or when timing or cycle risk makes oral emergency contraception less suitable.

How long after unprotected sex can a copper IUD be fitted?

A copper IUD can usually be considered within 5 days of unprotected sex or within 5 days of the earliest likely ovulation date, depending on cycle timing and clinical assessment.

Is the copper IUD more effective than the morning after pill?

Yes. The copper IUD is generally considered the most effective form of emergency contraception. Oral emergency contraception may still be suitable where a copper IUD is not acceptable, available or appropriate.

Can a copper IUD be used as ongoing contraception?

Yes. Once fitted, a copper IUD can provide ongoing non-hormonal contraception for several years, depending on the device used and clinical advice.

Ongoing contraception

Missed pills, condom failure and pregnancy testing.

8 entries
Do I still need contraception after taking the morning after pill?

Yes. Oral emergency contraception does not provide reliable protection for later sex in the same cycle. You should use condoms or avoid sex until your regular contraception is effective.

What if I missed a contraceptive pill?

You should provide the pill type, number of missed pills, when they were missed and when sex happened. This helps the clinician assess whether emergency contraception is needed and how to restart contraception safely.

What if a condom split or came off?

Condom failure is a common reason for emergency contraception. Provide the date and time it happened, whether ejaculation occurred, and any STI risk so the clinician can assess emergency contraception and sexual health advice.

What if I am late for my contraceptive injection?

You should provide the injection name, due date, actual date if given late and when sex happened. Emergency contraception may be needed depending on timing and how late the injection is.

What if my patch or vaginal ring was used incorrectly?

Provide details of when the patch or ring was removed, detached, delayed or used incorrectly. The clinician will assess pregnancy risk and whether emergency contraception is appropriate.

Can emergency contraception affect my next period?

Yes. Your next period may come earlier, later, heavier or lighter than usual. If your period is more than 7 days late, lighter than usual, abnormal or you have pregnancy symptoms, take a pregnancy test.

When should I take a pregnancy test after emergency contraception?

A pregnancy test is usually advised if your period is late or unusual, or around 3 weeks after unprotected sex if there is any concern. Follow the advice given with your consultation.

Does emergency contraception protect against STIs?

No. Emergency contraception does not protect against sexually transmitted infections. If there is any STI risk, new partner, multiple partners, condom failure or symptoms, STI testing should be considered.

Safety protocols

Interactions, red flags and urgent advice.

9 entries
Who may not be suitable for online emergency contraception?

Online emergency contraception may not be suitable if timing is outside the oral treatment window, pregnancy is already likely, there are significant medicine interactions, safeguarding concerns, severe symptoms, allergy to treatment or need for urgent copper IUD fitting.

Can emergency contraception be used if I may already be pregnant?

Emergency contraception does not end an existing pregnancy. If your period is already late, you have pregnancy symptoms, or earlier unprotected sex could already have caused pregnancy, you may need a pregnancy test and further advice.

Can emergency contraception cause an abortion?

No. Emergency contraception is intended to prevent pregnancy, mainly by delaying or preventing ovulation. It is not the same as abortion medication and does not end an established pregnancy.

What should I do if I have severe lower abdominal pain after emergency contraception?

Seek urgent medical advice if you develop severe lower abdominal pain, shoulder tip pain, fainting, heavy bleeding or a positive pregnancy test after emergency contraception. Ectopic pregnancy is uncommon but needs urgent assessment.

Can I take emergency contraception with other medicines?

You must declare all prescribed medicines, over-the-counter medicines and supplements. Some medicines can reduce emergency contraception effectiveness or affect which option is suitable.

What medicines can reduce emergency contraception effectiveness?

Enzyme-inducing medicines can reduce the effectiveness of oral emergency contraception. Examples include some epilepsy medicines, tuberculosis medicines, HIV medicines and St John's wort. Copper IUD referral may be recommended.

Can I use emergency contraception if I have liver disease?

Liver disease can affect medicine suitability. You must declare liver problems during the consultation so the clinician can assess which option is appropriate.

Can I use emergency contraception if I have severe asthma?

Some patients with severe asthma treated with oral glucocorticoids may need extra consideration before ellaOne. Declare asthma, steroid use and all current medicines during the consultation.

What should I do if I have an allergic reaction?

Stop taking any further medicine and seek urgent medical help if you develop swelling of the lips, tongue, throat or face, breathing difficulty, severe rash, fainting or symptoms of a serious allergic reaction.

Pharmacy support

Discreet supply, urgent access and aftercare.

6 entries
How is emergency contraception delivered?

If treatment is approved, medicine is dispensed and dispatched using discreet packaging. Delivery is subject to stock, approval, dispensing checks and courier availability. Because timing matters, urgent in-person access may be more appropriate in some cases.

Can I collect the morning after pill instead of delivery?

Depending on service arrangements and availability, collection or urgent local access may be more appropriate than delivery because emergency contraception is time-sensitive. If delivery could delay treatment, seek local pharmacy or sexual health clinic advice.

Can I get emergency contraception in advance?

Advance supply may be considered in some circumstances, but it still requires clinical review and clear advice on when and how to use it. It should not replace regular contraception.

Can I return emergency contraception medicine?

Prescription or supplied medicines cannot usually be returned for reuse once supplied. If there is a dispensing, delivery or product concern, contact the pharmacy promptly so it can be reviewed.

What if emergency contraception arrives too late?

If timing is critical or delivery is delayed, seek urgent in-person advice from a local pharmacy, sexual health clinic, GP service or urgent care provider. Oral emergency contraception is time-sensitive, and copper IUD referral may be needed.

Will my consultation be private?

Yes. Your consultation is handled confidentially. Information is used to assess suitability, support safe supply and provide aftercare advice.

Important: Emergency contraception is time-sensitive. Oral emergency contraception is supplied only if clinically suitable after online assessment. A copper IUD is the most effective emergency contraception option and may be recommended where appropriate.
