A request built around your health and preferences

Start, renew, or switch birth control with a safety review.

The right contraception choice depends on your health history, preferences, routine, and pregnancy plans. An online consultation can review those factors, discuss options, and determine whether a prescription is appropriate or an in-person service is needed.

Start an online birth control request

Prepare for a useful contraception review

  • Your current method, what you have tried before, and whether you want to start, renew, or switch
  • Current medications, allergies, side effects, and a recent blood-pressure reading if available
  • Relevant history such as migraine with aura, blood clots, smoking, pregnancy, or recent birth
  • Your priorities, including cycle control, convenience, privacy, or a longer-acting option

What an online consultation can clarify

Start, renew, or switch

A clinician reviews your goals and safety factors before deciding whether an online prescription is clinically appropriate.

Compare realistic options

The discussion can cover how different methods fit your preferences, routine, medical history, and follow-up needs.

Procedures stay in person

IUD and implant insertion cannot happen virtually. The clinician may discuss these options, but insertion must be arranged with an in-person provider.

No guaranteed prescription or method

An online request does not guarantee a prescription or a specific contraceptive. The clinician decides what is safe and appropriate after reviewing your history, and may recommend a blood-pressure check, testing, or in-person care.

The clinical consultation is $150 and tax-exempt. Medication, if prescribed, is billed separately by your pharmacy.

Connect contraception with the rest of your care

Review the broader contraception pathway. If STI prevention or screening is part of your concern, consider it separately when choosing care.

A Canadian source you can verify

Compare options with your health and preferences in mind.

The Government of Canada contraception mini-guide describes multiple hormonal and non-hormonal methods, explains that some options require insertion by a health care provider, and recommends discussing health conditions and side effects before choosing.
