Emergency contraception guide

Emergency contraception online in Virginia and West Virginia

This guide is for time-sensitive emergency contraception requests, not for pregnancy complications, assault-related care, or severe symptoms that need in-person support.

Start online

Emergency contraception can be a good online fit when the request is time-sensitive and the history does not suggest a need for urgent in-person care.

If treatment is appropriate, your physician can send a non-controlled prescription to your pharmacy and provide portal instructions for the next step.

Start the request on the website, answer the fit questions, and choose the response window you want. If the concern still fits this service, a physician reviews it and sends a secure update after sign-in. When appropriate, non-controlled prescriptions can be sent to your pharmacy, and a basic work or school note can be included at physician discretion.

Why is the timing question so important?

Emergency contraception effectiveness depends heavily on when the exposure happened, so timing is central to whether an online request makes sense.

When should this not be handled online?

Severe pain, heavy bleeding, assault-related emergencies, or symptoms concerning for ectopic pregnancy should be directed to urgent in-person care.
