Terms and Conditions
Terms and Conditions · gynxtra GmbH
Version 2.12 · As of 21 October 2026
This version applies to bookings from 21 October 2026. Earlier bookings are governed by the version applicable at the time of booking; provisions of this version that are more favourable to the patient also apply to them. For existing contracts for physician-led care, other changes apply in accordance with clause 12.
1 · Scope and Contracting Parties
These Terms and Conditions ("Terms") govern the contractual relationship between gynxtra GmbH ("gynxtra", "we") and the respective patient ("patient", "you") within the telemedical treatment programme for women in peri- and post-menopause.
Medical direction and overall medical responsibility lie with Dr. med. Bettina von Seefried, specialist in gynaecology and obstetrics (FMH), as the licensed physician. Medical services are provided by Dr. von Seefried herself or by another physician on gynxtra's medical team working under her licence and professional supervision (the "treating physician"). Not every treating physician holds a specialist title. Coaching services are provided by qualified staff on behalf of gynxtra.
By booking the medical consultation, the patient accepts these Terms in the version applicable at the time of booking.
2 · Subject Matter and Services
gynxtra offers an integrated telemedical programme consisting of:
2.1 Medical consultation (one-off CHF 250)
The medical consultation (formerly "initial consultation") is the entry point at gynxtra, for new patients and for former patients returning to care. It comprises:
- Access to the Patient Cockpit from the time of booking
- Structured medical history questionnaire in the Patient Cockpit (around 90 physician-curated questions across 9 topic blocks), to be completed before the appointment; the patient can upload existing prior findings there
- Review of the medical history and prior findings by the physician before the consultation, insofar as the patient has entered them in the Patient Cockpit in good time
- Video consultation with the treating physician (see clause 1), scheduled for 30 minutes
- Personal medical assessment of the situation during the consultation, in particular whether and which diagnostics make sense and whether treatment may be appropriate
- After the consultation, the patient receives a written medical report with a treatment plan in the Patient Cockpit. Depending on the physician's assessment, the treatment plan provides for treatment, with medication only where medically indicated; it may also recommend targeted diagnostics (clause 2.2) or an in-person examination first, or state that no treatment is needed. As long as diagnostics or an in-person examination are pending, the treatment plan is provisional. There is no entitlement to any particular treatment or medication; the physician decides on this in the exercise of her professional judgement.
- Where there is a medical indication, and provided that assessment without a physical examination is medically justifiable in the individual case, the physician may issue an initial prescription and certify incapacity for work. There is no entitlement to either; the decision rests with the physician in the exercise of her professional judgement. Active substances whose safe initial prescription requires knowledge of current laboratory values, in particular GLP-1 receptor agonists (semaglutide, tirzepatide) as well as testosterone and DHEA, are prescribed only once the required baseline values are available (from diagnostics under clause 2.2 or equivalent current prior findings). For off-label substances, prescription additionally takes place only after separate information/consent under clause 5.
- No obligation to proceed. Diagnostics, medication and ongoing care, even where the treatment plan provides for them, are only arranged separately, once the patient has been informed and has decided for herself. They are not included in the price of the medical consultation.
The medical consultation takes place by video, without a physical examination. It replaces neither on-site gynaecological check-ups nor emergency care (clause 4.2).
2.2 Targeted diagnostics (only on medical recommendation)
- Scope as recommended by the physician: one or more of four laboratory profiles (hormone profile, extended health profile, weight and metabolism profile, liver and kidney profile). The physician discusses scope and cost with the patient beforehand
- Blood sampling as agreed at a laboratory nearby, at the patient's GP or with a home blood-test kit (TAP II)
- Laboratory analysis of your blood values in a certified Swiss laboratory
- Results consultation: a dedicated 1:1 video consultation with the treating physician, with a review of the values, a written findings report and the treatment plan under clause 2.1, reviewed in light of the values and adjusted where necessary
2.3 Physician-led care (CHF 190 per month or CHF 285 per quarter)
- Medical follow-up consultations and check-ins at the medically recommended cadence
- Prescription refills with dispatch via the partner pharmacy (Hysek-Apotheke). Dispatch requires a delivery address in Switzerland.
- Wellbeing and adherence tracking in the Patient Cockpit
- Chat with the medical team in the patient area
- Obtaining the prescribed medicines at any location outside Switzerland is not part of the service. Whether a Swiss prescription can be dispensed there is governed by the applicable local law.
- Ongoing treatment is generally planned over six months; the medically appropriate form of follow-up is agreed after the medical consultation.
3 · Eligibility for Treatment
3.1 General requirements
By booking, the patient confirms that she is of age (at least 18 years) and that she will provide truthful information in the medical history and the consultation.
There is no screening before booking. Whether treatment by gynxtra is medically appropriate is assessed by the treating physician on the basis of the medical history and in the consultation. Certain treatments are ruled out in particular during ongoing cancer therapy, pregnancy or breastfeeding, or where there are contraindications to the active substances under consideration.
If gynxtra establishes before the appointment that the patient is a minor or that gynxtra is not the right place for her concern (for example an emergency), gynxtra cancels the appointment and refunds the full amount.
3.2 Additional requirements for diagnostics and ongoing care
For targeted diagnostics (sec. 2.2) and ongoing medical care (sec. 2.3), the following apply in addition:
- Residence in Switzerland
- A delivery address in Switzerland for laboratory shipments and medication deliveries
3.3 Territorial scope
gynxtra is a Swiss provider. All medical services are rendered in Switzerland, by physicians practising under a Swiss licence to practise (see clause 1), under Swiss law and in accordance with Swiss professional standards. The place of performance is Switzerland, irrespective of the location from which the patient attends the consultation.
gynxtra directs its offering exclusively at the Swiss market and does not render services under the law of any other state. Where the patient attends a consultation from a location outside Switzerland, it is her responsibility to establish whether, and subject to what conditions, she may receive medical services from Switzerland at that location, have a Swiss prescription dispensed, and obtain and use the prescribed medicines. gynxtra owes neither the verification nor the observance of those local requirements.
Medicines and test kits are dispatched exclusively to delivery addresses in Switzerland (secs. 2.2 and 2.3).
4 · Process and Patient Obligations
4.1 The patient undertakes to complete the medical history fully and truthfully, to return the blood-test kit on time where diagnostics have been agreed, and to attend appointments or reschedule them in good time.
4.2 In medical emergencies or acute deterioration, the patient must immediately contact the nearest emergency department or the emergency number responsible for her location; in Switzerland this is 144, elsewhere in Europe 112. The telemedical platform is not designed for emergencies. gynxtra cannot provide, arrange or procure emergency or acute care at any location.
4.3 The patient informs the treating physician of any change in health status, any new medication or any relevant symptoms.
4.4 Refill orders are triggered exclusively on the basis of a valid follow-up prescription (doctor check-in). Self-ordering is not possible.
4.5 Recording and transcription of the video consultation: The treating physician may record the video consultation and have it transcribed automatically by a medical transcription service. The transcript and her notes are used to draft the medical report, which the physician reviews and edits. The consultation is recorded only if the patient expressly consents at the start of the conversation; the physician asks for this and notes the answer. If the patient does not consent, the consultation takes place without recording, with the same services. The patient may withdraw her consent at any time, including during the conversation; the physician then stops the recording. By consenting, the patient also agrees that the physician entrusts the content of the conversation to the transcription service for this purpose (Art. 321 Swiss Criminal Code). The recording and the transcript are deleted no later than five days after the conversation; the report and the physician's notes become part of the patient record. Details, in particular on the services used, are set out in the Privacy Policy (sections 2.5, 4 and 6).
5 · Off-Label Use and Patient Information
Certain substances (in particular GLP-1 receptor agonists such as semaglutide and tirzepatide, as well as testosterone and DHEA) may be prescribed off-label within the programme, i.e. outside the indication approved by Swissmedic. Prescription is made in accordance with Art. 26 Abs. 2 HMG, in line with the current state of medical science and subject to an enhanced duty of information.
- The patient receives separate written information in the Patient Cockpit before any off-label prescription
- Prescription is issued only following written consent (digital signature with version stamp)
- The information covers risks, side effects, alternatives and discontinuation options
- Off-label consents may be withdrawn at any time (withdrawal takes effect for the future)
5a · Release from Medical Professional Secrecy
By concluding the contract, the patient releases the treating physician, to the extent necessary, from professional secrecy under Art. 321 StGB vis-à-vis the processors listed in the Privacy Policy (in particular cockpit hosting, database, appointment scheduling, laboratory analytics, medication dispatch, payment processing, communications).
The release is limited to the data and processes required to perform the contract. All processors are themselves contractually bound to confidentiality (Data Processing Agreements / DPAs). The patient may revoke this release at any time; revocation results in termination of the treatment relationship, as contract performance is technically not possible without these data flows.
6 · Prices, Payment Terms, VAT
6.1 The prices set out in clause 2 are in Swiss francs (CHF). Medical services (consultations, diagnostics, prescriptions) are exempt from VAT under Art. 21 Abs. 2 Ziff. 3 MWSTG. Statutory VAT applies to non-medical service components (e.g. coaching, platform use) where applicable. The price shown before payment applies. gynxtra's services are self-pay services: gynxtra does not bill health insurers, and the patient pays directly. Whether an insurer covers any costs is for the insurer alone to decide; gynxtra makes no promise of reimbursement.
6.2 Payment is made at the time of booking via Stripe, using the payment methods shown there (such as credit and debit card, Apple Pay, Google Pay, Klarna). The patient enters her payment details directly with Stripe, or with Klarna if she chooses Klarna; gynxtra does not receive card details. If the patient chooses Klarna, Klarna's terms also apply to her payment. Klarna thereby learns that she is paying gynxtra for a medical service and processes this information under its own responsibility, including for a credit check (Privacy Policy, section 4). By choosing this payment method, the patient agrees to this. Invoicing by gynxtra outside of Stripe is not provided.
6.3 The medical consultation is paid for at the time of booking. Where targeted diagnostics are medically recommended, the scope and costs are discussed before they begin. Physician-led care is charged monthly or quarterly in advance, depending on the medically recommended form of follow-up.
6.4 Medication costs are billed separately by the partner pharmacy (Hysek), unless expressly stated otherwise.
6.5 Rescheduling and cancellation: Booked appointments may be rescheduled or cancelled up to 24 hours before the agreed time via the link in the booking confirmation. If cancelled in time, any payment already made will be refunded or, on request, credited towards a new appointment. For cancellations less than 24 hours before the appointment and in the event of no-show, the service is charged in full and no refund is made. The voluntary right of withdrawal under clause 8.1 does not apply to such short-notice cancellations. In cases of documented important reasons (in particular illness or emergency), gynxtra may at its own discretion grant a one-time free rescheduling.
6.6 Selected time already taken: The selected time is secured only once gynxtra has created the appointment after payment. If the time has been taken by then, gynxtra immediately books a replacement appointment for the patient and informs her of it by email. The replacement appointment is the next available appointment after the selected time that is at least 24 hours after it is booked and no more than 14 days after the selected time. The payment applies to the replacement appointment. If there is no such appointment or it cannot be created, gynxtra refunds the full amount. The patient may reschedule the replacement appointment under clause 6.5 via the link in the booking confirmation. The deadline under clause 6.5 does not, however, apply to cancellation: if the patient cancels the replacement appointment, at whatever time, or does not attend it, gynxtra refunds the full amount, even if she had rescheduled it. If she would rather have her money back instead of the replacement appointment, a reply to the email is sufficient.
7 · Contract Term, Termination, Pause
7.1 Medical consultation: One-off service. It is rendered once the video consultation has taken place and the written report with treatment plan under clause 2.1 is available in the Patient Cockpit. This also applies if the treatment plan provides for no treatment, recommends diagnostics or an in-person examination first, or is provisional.
7.2 Targeted diagnostics: One-off service, bookable only on medical recommendation. The service is fully rendered once the results consultation has taken place and the findings report and the reviewed treatment plan have been handed over. As the treatment plan is always individually reviewed following the results consultation, a refund on grounds of a change of mind is excluded from that point onwards. Statutory claims of the patient in the event of defective or non-conforming performance remain expressly reserved.
7.3 Physician-led care: Medical care is generally planned over six months. This planning is a clinical recommendation and creates neither a minimum term nor any commitment. As regards cancellation: monthly follow-up may be cancelled before the next prescription is issued. Quarterly follow-up is binding for the respective quarterly treatment period.
7.4 Pause: The patient may pause physician-led care at any time on medical or personal grounds (max. 90 days). No charges accrue during the pause; the remaining term is extended accordingly.
7.5 Extraordinary termination: Both parties may terminate the contract at any time for good cause (in particular medical indication against continuation, serious breach of the Terms).
7.6 Continuity of Care: Upon termination by gynxtra (in particular on medical grounds), the treating physician ensures the patient's ongoing medical care until handover to another physician, a general practitioner or a clinic. On request, the patient receives her complete patient record in a machine-readable format (reports and treatment plan, laboratory findings, consultation notes) for forwarding to the receiving practitioner. Where the patient receives treatment from a location outside Switzerland, gynxtra discharges this obligation by releasing the complete patient record without delay and by granting a reasonable transition period. Naming a receiving physician or institution at her location is the patient's responsibility. This obligation follows from the physician's professional duty of care (Art. 40(a) MedBG) and, for FMH members, additionally from Art. 7 FMH-Standesordnung.
8 · Right of Withdrawal
8.1 Swiss law does not provide a statutory right of withdrawal for telemedical online contracts under OR Art. 40b et seq. gynxtra voluntarily grants the patient a right of withdrawal of 14 days from the conclusion of the contract, provided the service has not yet been rendered.
8.2 Once performance of the service has begun (e.g. the video call of the medical consultation, dispatch of the blood test kit under agreed diagnostics, issuance of a prescription), the right of withdrawal lapses for the respective part of the service. Pro-rata refunds for parts not yet rendered are possible at gynxtra's discretion.
8.3 Cancellation and commitment periods for physician-led care follow the medically recommended monthly or quarterly form of follow-up (see clause 7.3).
8.4 Withdrawal declarations must be made in text form by email to hello@gynxtra.ch.
9 · Data Protection
The processing of the patient's personal data is governed by the separate Privacy Policy of gynxtra GmbH as well as by the revised Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection (revDSG, in force since 1 September 2023).
In particular:
- Health data qualifies as sensitive personal data
- gynxtra processes health data to prepare and provide treatment and for the other purposes set out in the Privacy Policy; where consent is required for this, gynxtra obtains it explicitly
- Disclosures abroad only take place to countries with adequate data protection or with the safeguards provided for by law, such as standard contractual clauses; details are set out in the Privacy Policy (sections 4 and 5)
- Patients have rights of access, rectification, deletion and data portability at any time
10 · Liability
10.1 gynxtra is liable in accordance with statutory provisions for intent and gross negligence.
10.2 Liability for slight negligence in respect of financial losses is excluded to the extent permitted by law. Statutory provisions apply to personal injury.
10.3 gynxtra is not liable for damages arising from false statements by the patient, failure to follow medical instructions, unauthorised dose adjustments or use of the platform in emergencies.
10.4 In the event of technical failures of the platform (cockpit, video call), gynxtra endeavours to restore service as quickly as possible. No availability guarantee is given.
11 · Communication and Electronic Delivery
11.1 The patient accepts that contractual documents, appointment reminders, medical reports, treatment plans and prescriptions are delivered electronically (email, Patient Cockpit).
11.2 The patient keeps her contact details up to date in the Patient Cockpit.
12 · Amendments to the Terms
gynxtra may amend these Terms, in particular in response to legal changes or extensions of the service offering. Material changes will be announced to the patient at least 30 days in advance by email and in the Patient Cockpit. If the patient does not object within this period, the new Terms are deemed accepted. In the event of objection, the patient has an extraordinary right of termination.
13 · Governing Law and Jurisdiction
13.1 This contract is subject exclusively to Swiss law, excluding conflict-of-laws rules and the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods. The place of performance for all services is gynxtra's registered office in Switzerland.
13.2 The place of jurisdiction is Zurich. For consumer contract disputes with a value below CHF 30,000, the patient may alternatively bring proceedings at the court of her canton of residence (ZPO Art. 32 ff.). Mandatory provisions protecting consumers at their place of residence remain reserved.
14 · Severability
Should individual provisions of these Terms be invalid or unenforceable, the validity of the remaining provisions shall remain unaffected. The invalid provision shall be replaced by a valid provision that comes closest to the original economic purpose.
