Do you live in the United States or elsewhere? Availability and the best option depend heavily on your country and state. If you’re in the U.S., here are the most-used, reputable services and what each is best for:
- Nurx — Broad range (birth control pills, ring, patch, emergency contraception), telehealth visits, ships nationwide, accepts some insurances; good for quick start and convenient refills.
- The Pill Club — Focused on contraception delivery, 3‑month packs, free telehealth counseling, insurance support and reminders; good if you want regular multi‑month shipping and strong customer service.
- Lemonaid Health — Simple telehealth process, affordable generics, fast shipping; good if you want a low‑cost, straightforward option.
- Hers (formerly Hims & Hers) — Offers birth control pills and patches with telehealth, branded and generic options, monthly delivery and subscription; good if you prefer a mainstream telehealth brand with subscription convenience.
- Prjkt Ruby — Telehealth and mail delivery plus sexual health support (STI testing options); good if you want more comprehensive sexual & reproductive health services.
- Planned Parenthood Direct (app) — Telehealth access from Planned Parenthood with prescription shipping in many areas; good if you want care from a trusted reproductive-health provider.
- PillPack (Amazon Pharmacy) — Full-service pharmacy that coordinates refills and delivers pre-sorted blister packs monthly; excellent for ongoing users who want automatic refill management and easy insurance billing.
- Local pharmacy delivery / same‑day services (CVS, Walgreens, Capsule where available) — Good for same‑day pickup or delivery if you need a prescription quickly.
Quick notes and tips:
- IUDs and implants cannot be delivered online—you’ll need an in‑person visit for placement/removal.
- Some services require a recent blood pressure reading (for combined pills) or a brief medical questionnaire/televisit.
- Check whether a service accepts your insurance or will bill it; generics are much cheaper if paying out of pocket.
- Emergency contraception (Plan B, ella) is often available OTC, but some services (e.g., Nurx) can ship it if needed.
If you tell me the country (or U.S. state) and what matters most to you (lowest cost, fastest delivery, insurance billing, discrete packaging, or comprehensive sexual-health care), I can recommend the best single option for your situation.
