Emergency contraception

Emergency contraception online in Virginia

For Virginia adults seeking a morning-after pill request after unprotected sex or birth control failure, when the timing and screening questions still fit straightforward online care.

What this page is for

This lane is built for timely emergency contraception requests, not for known pregnancy or severe pelvic symptoms. The intake focuses on timing, what happened, weight range, and current birth control context so the physician can review the request quickly.

Quick fit

  • Adults physically in Virginia at the time of request
  • No office visit or video chat required when the request fits online care
  • Secure portal follow-up after physician review
  • Posted response windows during Mon-Fri, 8:00 AM-6:00 PM ET

Common symptoms

  • Need for a morning-after pill after unprotected sex
  • Broken or slipped condom
  • Missed pills or other birth control failure
  • Need for fast review within the emergency contraception time window

May fit online care

  • The episode happened within the last 5 days
  • No known pregnancy from before this episode
  • No severe pelvic pain, fainting, or urgent safety concern
  • A straightforward emergency contraception question rather than a broader gynecology problem

Look for another care setting

  • Known pregnancy or positive test from before this episode
  • Severe pelvic pain, fainting, or other urgent symptoms
  • Sexual assault needing immediate in-person support or urgent resources
  • A request outside the time window for emergency contraception review

What to have ready

  • How long ago the sex or birth control problem happened
  • What kind of birth control failure or concern happened
  • Approximate body weight range if you are comfortable sharing it
  • Your preferred pharmacy in case treatment is appropriate

How fast should I submit this request?

Sooner is better. The intake is designed to move quickly because timing matters for emergency contraception.

Is this the same as routine birth control?

No. This page is for emergency contraception after a recent episode, not for ongoing birth control management.

Will I have to do a video visit?

No. QuickVisitMD is designed so this kind of request can start through the website without an office visit or video chat when it still fits the lane.
