Contraceptive pill
Can I get the contraceptive pill over the counter of a pharmacy or must I have a doctor's prescription?
Sexologist
You can go to a Family Planning Nurse inside the pharmacy (most Link Pharmacies have this service), or the doctor must prescribe it. There are so many pills on the market that you need to have an examination, blood pressure checked, etc.
