Short answer: it depends on where you live and what you want (pill vs ring vs shot vs IUD). If you’re in the United States, the most popular, reliable online birth-control telehealth + delivery options are:
- Nurx — large, easy-to-use telehealth service that prescribes a wide range of pills, the ring and the patch; accepts many insurances and offers low-cost options. Good for fast delivery and repeat refills.
- Pandia Health — specializes in birth-control prescriptions/subscriptions; low monthly price for pills and strong refill/auto‑ship support. Good if you want a pill-only subscription with consistent pricing.
- Hers (formerly Hims & Hers) — consumer-friendly app, clear pricing, and fast shipping; offers pill options plus convenient online care. Good user experience for younger adults.
- Lemonaid Health — affordable telemedicine visits and medication delivery; often cheaper out‑of‑pocket and available in many states.
- Planned Parenthood Direct (app) — backed by Planned Parenthood clinicians; reliable clinical standards and privacy protections. Great if you want a trusted provider and local referral options for procedures.
- PillPack/Amazon Pharmacy — excellent if you already have a prescription and want reliable, packaged deliveries and automatic refills (not a telehealth prescriber, but great for ongoing delivery).
- Local same‑day pharmacy delivery services (e.g., Capsule in cities) — good if you need immediate pickup/delivery of a prescription you already have.
Things to check when choosing:
- Are prescriptions included or do you need to bring an existing one? (Most services include an online consult.)
- Insurance coverage vs cash price — some services bill insurance; others are cash-only.
- Shipping speed, refill/auto-ship options, privacy packaging.
- Clinical limits — IUDs, implants and injections require in‑person visits; many combined pills require a recent blood-pressure check (some services accept self-reported BP).
- State/country availability — services vary by location.
If you tell me your country/state and whether you want pills, the ring, the patch, emergency contraception, or an IUD, I can recommend the best single option for your situation and help compare costs.
