Short answer: Several mainstream telehealth services commonly prescribe the progestin-only (“mini”) pill. Which ones can help depends on your state and medical history, but these are good places to try:
- Nurx — Widely used for birth control; offers progestin‑only pill options (norethindrone) with subscription delivery and insurance/billing options.
- Hers (by Ro) — Telehealth service for people who need contraception; offers mini‑pill choices, discreet delivery and refill/subscription management.
- Planned Parenthood Direct (app/online) — Nonprofit provider that prescribes the mini‑pill in many areas and can be a lower‑cost option; also connects easily to in‑person clinics if needed.
- Lemonaid Health — Straightforward online visit with a flat fee; they commonly prescribe norethindrone where available.
- PlushCare — Virtual primary‑care visits with clinicians who can prescribe progestin‑only pills and send prescriptions to a local pharmacy or for home delivery.
- Amwell / Teladoc — Large telehealth platforms whose clinicians often prescribe birth control (including POPs) depending on state availability.
- GoodRx Care (formerly HeyDoctor) — Offers online birth control visits and often prescribes generic progestin‑only pills at affordable prices.
A few quick notes:
- State rules and clinician availability vary; some services don’t prescribe every medication in every state.
- The mini‑pill is commonly available as norethindrone 0.35 mg (and a few other progestin formulations); if you have specific medical issues (breastfeeding, migraines, history of blood clots), mention them — clinicians will use that info to decide.
- Expect a brief medical questionnaire or tele-visit; prescriptions are either shipped or sent to a local pharmacy. Prices, insurance coverage, and subscription options differ by service.
If you tell me your state (or zip code) I can check which of these services are available to you and compare likely costs/options.
