Health Advice for Women

Women’s health problems, even minor ones such as, acne, thrush, period delay and contraception can interfere with or even overshadow everything else that’s going on in their life. There are many ways in which you can look after women’s health.

It is no secret; women are leading busier lives than ever before and have a tendency to let themselves slip low on their priority lists. However, it is time for women to start putting themselves first and focusing on their health. By staying on top of your health and making positive changes, you are making an investment in your future.

Here at Online Health Services, our online doctor is here to help you find the right treatment for you and provide you with quality health advice for women and men. We’ll make an informed decision as to the medication and treatment you’ll need. With express delivery as standard, Online Health Services has everything you’d expect from your local pharmacy, without the hassle.

Period Delay Tablets

Having your period can be irritating, especially if you’ve got a big event coming up, such as a festival or holiday. Delaying your period can be helpful when these important events occur. You should not be using this form of treatment if you are prone to blood clots or have a past history of blood clotting.

Our prescribing service can supply you with a period delay tablet called norethisterone which will postpone your period until you stop taking the tablets. Norethisterone can help you to delay your period for up to 17 days.

Morning After Pill / Contraceptive Pill

If you’ve had unprotected sex, or your usual method of contraception has failed, the morning after pill can be requested if you are in need of emergency contraception to avoid an unwanted pregnancy.

The sooner you take the morning-after pill, the greater the chances of avoiding pregnancy. Our prescribing service will help you to find the perfect medication for you depending on how long it has been since you had unprotected sex. Treatments available are Levonorgestrel and ellaOne.

You can take ellaOne up to 120 hours (five days) after unprotected sex.
You can take Levonorgestrel up to 72 hours (three days) after unprotected sex.

We also provide contraception methods such as Cerazette, which is a 3-month course. As this medication requires a prescription, you will need to complete a short online assessment in order to purchase the medication. Once you have completed our mandatory assessment, our team of registered and trained online doctors will review your assessment and either pass or reject your purchase. If you are approved in this stage, a prescription will be issued, which is passed on to our online pharmacy delivery service and dispatch the medication you need to your chosen delivery address. All medications and treatments are certified and delivered from within the UK, so you can rely on a genuine service every time.
