As the capital city of the Czech Republic, you'll find many health care options in Prague. There are many birth control options, such as pills, shot, implants and IUDs, but you will need a prescription before obtaining them. Condoms are easy to find and no prescription is required. Emergency contraception (the morning after pill) can be purchased without a prescription, and ellaOne (the most effective EC on the market) is also available. While there are many places to get an STD/STI test, and there are also no residency travel restrictions tied to STI status, there currently seems to be no PrEP available in the Czech Republic. You can get the HPV vaccine and most other vaccines or medications. Regarding women's clinics and gynecologists, we have included a list of places to check out below (in the "Gynecological Exams" section). There is a 28-week maternity leave policy for women and the government seems to be expanding its paternity leave policy as well. Abortion is fully legal in the first 12 weeks of pregnancy and, based on medical conditions or the condition of the fetus, it can sometimes be performed later as well. If you don't have legal residency or citizenship in the Czech Republic, you may have difficulty obtaining an abortion (this is information that we're still investigating). | |||
