Short answer: several U.S. telehealth services commonly prescribe progestin‑only (“mini”) pills. Which one will work for you depends on your state, medical history, and whether you want home delivery or pharmacy pickup. Options to consider:
- Nurx — widely used for birth control, offers progestin‑only pill options (norethindrone) with home delivery and insurance/billing options. Good if you want a medication shipped to you.
- Lemonaid Health — transparent pricing, fast shipping, and commonly prescribes norethindrone for eligible patients.
- Planned Parenthood Direct (app/telehealth) — from a trusted sexual/reproductive health provider; offers telehealth contraception visits and can prescribe POPs when appropriate, with clinic follow‑up options and sliding‑scale care.
- GoodRx Care (GoodRx Health / formerly HeyDoctor) — low‑cost telehealth visits and prescriptions sent to a local pharmacy or shipped, often a budget‑friendly option.
- PlushCare — full telemedicine primary‑care service that can assess and prescribe contraception, convenient if you prefer an ongoing virtual primary care relationship.
- Maven Clinic — women’s/parenting health clinic focused on reproductive care; good for detailed counseling and follow‑up around contraception.
Notes and next steps:
- Prescribing depends on clinician assessment; some services don’t prescribe certain meds in every state. Expect to complete a medical questionnaire or brief televisit.
- If you want a specific mini‑pill (e.g., norethindrone 0.35 mg, brand Micronor/Nor‑QD in the U.S.), mention that in the visit — clinicians may prescribe the generic equivalent based on availability and your health history.
- If you tell me which state you’re in (or whether you have insurance and prefer home delivery vs pharmacy pickup), I can check which of these services currently operate there and which may be the fastest/cheapest for you.
