Birth Control Options

Choosing your birth control is highly personal. With more than 50 generic and name brand birth control options, our healthcare providers can help you find the one that works for you.

Some methods are expensive without insurance — these include the birth control patch, ring, and shot, as well as certain pills like Lo Loestrin, Beyaz, and Natazia. If you pay out-of-pocket we can prescribe generic birth control pills starting at $15 per month. Get started.

The Pill

The most widely used birth control method, the pill is most effective when taken regularly, every day. Besides preventing pregnancy, the pill can improve acne, reduce symptoms of PMS, and help make periods more regular, less painful, and lighter in flow.

The Patch

Worn on the skin like a bandage, the patch is a great option for anyone who prefers not taking a daily pill. Each patch is kept on for a week, then replaced with a new one. After 3 weeks, you take a 1 week break for your period before putting on a new patch.

The Ring

The most low maintenance birth control option, the ring is a small, flexible ring inserted into your vagina. The ring is worn for 3 weeks at a time. After 3 weeks, you take a 1 week break for your period before putting in a new ring.

The Shot

You inject the birth control shot in your stomach or thigh area every 3 months. Because it doesn't contain estrogen, the shot is popular with people who have had negative side effects on estrogen-based birth control or are breastfeeding. It's also a good option if you have difficulty taking a daily pill.

Emergency Contraception Options

Our medical team prescribes Ella, a prescription-only morning after pill, before you need it or when you need it now with overnight shipping.

I’ve been using Nurx for the last year. I switched jobs and my health insurance changed. I completely forgot about my birth control prescription and I had a big trip coming up for several weeks, so I realized I needed to quickly figure out what to do!

A co-worker was telling me about a cheap birth control solution that they ship right to your house. She said they also accepted insurance so it would be low cost or no cost. So I decided to look up Nurx and I love it.

It’s completely changed my quality of life. The customer support team is incredibly helpful. Every time I have a question like if I’m getting weird symptoms, I always hear back right away.

It was so easy and hassle-free. I signed up once and the packages came to my door. I don’t have to do anything, it renews every three months. I travel a lot and it makes my life so much easier. I love it.

First I thought is this company real? But getting the pills in the mail was proof for me. It took all my fears away.

I’ve been using Nurx for the last six months, it’s really great and super convenient. When I first started using Nurx I didn’t have health insurance so I felt like I couldn’t go to the doctor and ask for a prescription. I wouldn’t have been able to afford it. It was so easy to just go to Nurx and pay for it outright. It was an absolute lifesaver.

I wasn’t sure about the doctor part, but as soon as my application got approved they gave me more information about who my doctor was so my concerns faded away. I’m also able to ask questions on the app, so I can always reach out and know that somebody will get back to me.
