Verbatim response from ChatGPT
Short answer: several mainstream telehealth companies commonly prescribe progestin‑only (“mini”) pills. Which brands they’ll send depends on your medical history, state, and their current formulary.
Services that frequently prescribe the mini‑pill
- Nurx — well‑known birth‑control telemedicine service with home delivery; they explicitly list progestin‑only options and are easy to use for refills.
- Planned Parenthood Direct (app/online) — trusted reproductive‑health provider; many affiliates offer online prescriptions and can prescribe POPs when appropriate.
- Lemonaid Health — straightforward telemedicine visits with flat fees; commonly prescribes progestin‑only pills when clinically appropriate.
- Hers — women’s health service with subscription shipping for birth control; offers progestin‑only options in many states.
- GoodRx Care / HeyDoctor — low‑cost telehealth visits that can result in a POP prescription; GoodRx can also help compare pharmacy prices.
- PlushCare — telemedicine physicians who can prescribe contraception and (if you use insurance) bill it through your plan.
- Maven Clinic — women’s/primary reproductive‑health telemedicine; prescribers can evaluate and prescribe mini pills as part of broader care.
Common mini‑pill brands to ask about
- Norethindrone brands: Camila, Errin, Nora‑BE, Micronor (traditional “mini” pills)
- Drospirenone brand: Slynd (a newer progestin‑only pill with a more flexible dosing window)
Important notes
- Availability varies by state, stock, and your medical history. An online visit is required and the clinician may recommend a different method based on safety or effectiveness.
- If you’re breastfeeding, have certain medical conditions, or are taking interacting meds, tell the clinician — that affects which POP is best.
- Cost, shipping, and whether your insurance covers the drug differ between services.
If you want, tell me your state (or zip) and whether you have insurance or are breastfeeding, and I can check which of these services are available to you and which brands they list.
