What Women's Health Treatments Do You Offer?
Cystitis treatment
Cystitis is a urinary tract infection that commonly causes symptoms such as pain when urinating, increased urinary frequency and lower abdominal discomfort. Webmed offers antibiotics online for cystitis treatment in uncomplicated cases, subject to clinical assessment of symptoms and medical history.
Period delay treatment
Progresterone period delay pill treatment may be suitable for women who wish to temporarily postpone a menstrual period for a specific event, holiday or personal reason.
Treatment should only be used following an assessment to ensure it is medically appropriate and safe for the individual.
Morning after pill
Emergency contraception can help reduce the risk of pregnancy after unprotected sex or contraceptive failure.
Treatment is most effective when taken as soon as possible, although the available time window depends on the specific type of emergency contraception used.
If you have been assaulted, what happened was not your fault. You can find free, sensitive and confidential medical support and further signposting services from your nearest Sexual Assault Referral Centre (SARC).
Acne treatments
Prescription acne medications are often recommended when over-the-counter products have not brought enough improvement or when acne keeps returning.
In women, acne can sometimes be linked to hormonal changes, so treatment may need to consider where and when breakouts appear as well as the overall severity.
A clinician will review your symptoms and any previous treatment before suggesting the most appropriate option.
Weight loss treatments
We offer weight loss pills and weight loss pens to support health-related weight management in eligible women.
Suitability is assessed carefully to make sure treatment is appropriate for your BMI, medical history, and any conditions that may affect treatment choice.
We also offer free wellness coaching sessions in consultation with a pharmacist, providing supportive guidance for healthy long-term weight management in a non-judgemental group setting.
When to contact a clinician
You should contact a clinician if symptoms worsen, persist unexpectedly or if you experience any serious reactions.
You can reach out to our clinical support team on 0161 491 1899 to review treatment suitability.
What STI Tests and Treatments Do You Offer Online for Women?
At-home STI test kits allow individuals to more quickly and discreetly test for STIs than possible on the NHS.
You can collect samples privately and return them for laboratory analysis. Testing can help identify common sexually transmitted infections, including those that may not cause noticeable symptoms.
Bacterial Vaginosis (BV) Treatment
Bacterial vaginosis occurs when the normal balance of vaginal bacteria becomes disrupted. BV isn’t really an STI but it can be triggered through sexual intercourse.
Treatment can help relieve symptoms such as unusual discharge and odour while restoring a healthier vaginal environment.
Trichomoniasis (TV) Treatment
Trichomoniasis is a sexually transmitted infection caused by a parasite and may cause symptoms such as discharge, irritation or discomfort when urinating. Effective treatment is available following diagnosis and clinical assessment.
Chlamydia Testing and Treatment
Chlamydia is one of the most commonly diagnosed sexually transmitted infections in the UK and often causes no symptoms.
In women however, chlamydia can sometimes lead to cervicitis, an inflammation of the cervix from infection.
This makes testing especially important, as effective antibiotic treatment is available once infection is confirmed.
Gonorrhoea Testing and Treatment
Gonorrhoea testing and treatment remain a growing concern for healthcare professionals and public health teams.
It can affect the genitals, rectum, and throat, and in women it may be mistaken for other vaginal or urinary infections if symptoms are mild or absent.
Testing helps confirm infection and guide the most appropriate treatment based on current clinical guidance.
Genital Herpes Treatment
Genital herpes is caused by the herpes simplex virus and can lead to recurring outbreaks of sores or blisters.
In women, symptoms may be particularly uncomfortable during periods, pregnancy, or if lesions affect the vulval area, so antiviral treatment may help reduce the severity and duration of outbreaks.
It is also used during pregnancy to help lower the risk of transmission during labour and a newborn developing neonatal herpes.
Genital Warts Treatment
Genital warts are caused by certain strains of human papillomavirus and may appear as small growths around the genital or anal area.
We offer treatment creams for genital warts that help stimulate the body’s immune response against the infected tissue. This can help remove visible warts and manage symptoms where needed, particularly when they affect sensitive areas.
HIV and PrEP Services
If you’re worried about HIV exposure, there’s no need to panic. A HIV diagnosis is no longer a death sentence, and our discreet testing options are minimally invasive and can be done from home.
HIV is only spread by infected body fluids, including blood, vaginal fluids, anal mucus, and semen, entering your bloodstream. You do not need to worry about transmission through shaking someone’s hand or sharing items.
If you’re concerned about HIV exposure, you can get PEP (Post-Exposure Prophylaxis) emergency care from your local A&E or GUM clinic, which can reduce transmission risk by up to 80%.
You can also test to help get on PrEP (Pre Exposure Prophylaxis). This is a method of preventing transmission, where an HIV negative person takes the same antiretrovirals used by HIV positive people.
If you are diagnosed positive, it’s important to know that you can still live a full life with normal life expectancy. If you want them, finding a partner and having children are absolutely still possible.
U=U means that a HIV positive person who is undetectable cannot pass the virus on through sexual intercourse, although breast feeding remains a risk. HIV treatment while pregnant can lower the risk of vertical transmission to 0.1%.
Do You Offer Health Testing Kits for Women?
Cervical HPV Testing
HPV testing can identify certain high-risk strains of human papillomavirus that are associated with cervical cell changes including cervical cancer.
Testing may provide additional information about cervical health and help guide further screening recommendations where appropriate.
Group B Streptococcus Testing
Group B Streptococcus testing helps protect your newborn by screening for this bacteria, which can sometimes be passed to a baby during birth. Testing may help identify individuals who require further medical guidance or monitoring.
How Our Online Service Works
Choose your treatment
You begin by selecting the treatment that matches your symptoms or health needs. Each option includes information to help you understand whether it may be suitable before starting a consultation.
Complete a discreet online consultation
You complete a medical questionnaire that covers your symptoms, medical history and any current medications. This information allows a qualified clinician to assess whether treatment is safe and appropriate for you.
Clinician review and prescription approval
A registered prescriber reviews your consultation responses to confirm suitability and safety. If appropriate, a prescription is issued and the treatment is prepared for dispensing.
Fast, discreet UK delivery
Once approved, medication is dispensed by a regulated pharmacy and sent directly to your address. Packaging is discreet to protect your privacy and delivery times are typically quick within the UK.
Ordering Treatment Online
Do I need a prescription for women’s treatment?
Most prescription treatments require a valid prescription issued after a clinical consultation. This ensures the medication is safe and appropriate for your individual health profile.
Can I use an existing prescription?
We don’t fill existing prescriptions. In most cases, an online consultation is still needed to confirm suitability.
How eligibility is assessed
Eligibility is determined through a medical questionnaire reviewed by a qualified prescriber. This process ensures that treatment is safe and appropriate for your condition and medical history.

What if my consultation is not approved?
If your consultation is not approved, you may be given alternative advice or referred to another service. This helps make sure you receive the right care for your condition.
Managing Your Treatment
Taking treatment correctly
Medication should be taken exactly as prescribed to ensure effectiveness and reduce risk of side effects. Instructions provided with the treatment should always be followed.
Missed doses and what to do
If a dose is missed, guidance depends on the specific medication and timing. In most cases, the missed dose should be taken as soon as remembered unless it is close to the next dose.
When treatment should be reviewed
Treatment should be reviewed if symptoms change, side effects occur or the condition does not improve as expected. Regular review helps ensure ongoing suitability.
Monitoring progress over time
Progress is monitored by changes in symptoms, response to treatment and overall wellbeing. In some cases, follow up consultation may be recommended.
Support After Treatment
What happens after approval
Once treatment is approved, it is dispensed and sent to your chosen address. You may receive instructions on how to take the medication safely and effectively.
How to reorder treatment
Repeat orders can be placed through your account where clinically appropriate. A review may be required before ongoing prescriptions are issued.
Managing side effects
If side effects occur, patients are advised to review the guidance provided with the medication and contact a clinician if symptoms are concerning. Most side effects are mild and temporary.
