You can get birth control prescribed online by using a telehealth or virtual-care service that lets you complete a health questionnaire, then have a licensed clinician review it and send a prescription to your pharmacy or mail it to you if approved.[3][4][6][8]
The most straightforward options are:
- Nurx: you fill out an online consultation, a licensed provider reviews it, and—if appropriate—they prescribe birth control and ship a 3-month supply to you; Nurx says there is no doctor visit required.[4]
- Planned Parenthood Direct: you request birth control in the app, a provider reviews your questionnaire, and medication is shipped or sent to your pharmacy if you’re eligible.[6]
- Walgreens Virtual Care: you complete an intake form, submit a recent blood pressure reading from within the last 12 months, and a clinician can prescribe pills, patches, rings, or diaphragms virtually for eligible patients ages 18–55.[3]
- Wisp: you complete an online birth control quiz/intake, and if needed a licensed provider follows up by chat or phone; approved prescriptions can be sent to your pharmacy or shipped home.[8]
- GoodRx Care: GoodRx says you can meet with a healthcare professional over video or chat, and if appropriate they’ll send a prescription to your local pharmacy.[1]
If you want no-prescription birth control, Opill is an FDA-approved over-the-counter daily pill that can be bought online or in stores without a doctor’s visit or prescription.[1][5][7]
What you’ll usually need for prescription birth control online:
- Health history answers and method preferences.[4][6][8]
- A blood pressure reading for some services, especially for hormonal birth control.[3]
- Payment or insurance information; some services advertise low cash prices or free shipping.[1][4]
A practical way to do this is:
- Choose a service that operates in your state.
- Complete the online medical intake.
- Upload any required blood pressure documentation.
- Wait for clinician review.
- Receive the prescription at your pharmacy or by mail if approved.[3][4][6][8]
