* If you would like to get '''birth control pills''' ("pastillas anticonceptivas" in Spanish), they can be purchased in pharmacies without a prescription for about AR$30-$120. [http://www.farmacity.com.ar/ Farmacity] is a popular pharmacy chain. Some brands you can expect to see are Ovrette, Marvelon, Microlut, Microval, Diane-35, Duoluton, Eugynon, Neogynon, Nordiol, Ovral, Microgynon, Microvlar, Nordette, Miranova and others. To see which pills are available in Argentina, check out  [http://contraceptive.ippf.org/search?search.searchtext=&search.component=&search.countrycode=AR IPFF Argentina], [http://www.alfabeta.net/mf/ Alfabeta], [http://ar.kairosweb.com/ Kairos].

* If you're interested in the '''contraceptive ring''' (like Nuvaring), you can get it at Farmacity for AR$240.
* If you want an '''IUD''', you can get the IUD insertion at a hospital or health center. While you can get it done at a public hospital, you'll find that only non-hormonal IUDs are available. They last for 10 years. If you want the hormonal IUDs, which last for 5 years, you'll need to go to a private hospital. For Mirena, it's about $1700 pesos. The copper IUD (not industria argentina) costs around $500-700 pesos.

* If you want a '''contraceptive control shot/injectable''' ("inyección" in Spanish), you can find Cyclofem, Cyclofemina, Dahlia, Depo-Provera, Mesigyna and Perlutal in Argentina. You can probably get the injections for free at public hospitals and health centers, like Hospital General de Agudos A. Zubizarreta or Hospital General de Agudos B. Rivadavia. If you would like to get it at Farmacity, you can get it for around AR$40. Since some pharmacies in Buenos Aires don't carry the shot, you should confirm a stable place to get an injection before you commit to shots.
* If you want the '''contraceptive implant''' ("implante" or "anticonceptivo subcutáneo" in Spanish), this has been available in Argentina since 2012.
* If you're interested in the '''contraceptive patch''' ("parche" in Spanish), you can get it a pharmacies, like Farmacity. It's not covered by the public health system, so expect to pay around AR$150-$200.
