Frequently Asked Questions

Can I pick up my refills at a health center?

As a result of COVID-19, we advise patients use our birth control by mail (with free shipping) option. We typically process orders within 24-48 hours. You should receive your birth control in the mail within 3-5 business days. Using this service helps us limit in-person interactions at our health centers.

You can also pick your birth control up at a health center. To reduce your wait time, please request your refill one business day in advance. Screening for symptoms and a temperature check are required if you visit a health center.

We offer free shipping on birth control refills. We typically process orders within 24-48 hours. You should recieve your birth control in the mail within 3-5 business days.
