How fast will I get it?

Orders approved before 3pm on a working day are posted the same day by Royal Mail Tracked 24, usually arriving the next day.

Not unless you want them to. Calls are private, parcels are plain with nothing on the outside about what's inside, and we only tell your GP if you say yes.

What happens on the call?

A few private questions about your health and timing, so we can supply the right medicine safely. It usually takes 5 to 10 minutes.

Which morning after pill will I get?

Levonorgestrel: works up to 3 days (72 hours). Ulipristal (ellaOne): works up to 5 days (120 hours). You don't need to choose. We'll pick the right one with you on the call.

Combined pill or mini pill?

Combined pill: contains oestrogen and progestogen; you'll need recent blood pressure, height, weight; often suits regular, lighter periods. Mini pill: contains progestogen only; you'll need height and weight; often suits can't take oestrogen, smokers over 35, breastfeeding. Not sure? We'll talk it through on the call and recommend what's safest for you.

Do I need to be registered with a GP?

No. Any woman aged 18 or over in England can use Vivia, whether or not she's registered with a GP.

I get my contraceptive pill from my GP. Can I switch?

Yes. Choose "Repeat my daily contraceptive pill" and we'll take it from there.
