Contraception is legal and widely available in Spain. If you would like to buy condoms, they can be found at most supermarkets and pharmacies, and there are even condom-dispensing machines in Spanish cities. However, if you would like hormonal birth control, a prescription is required. You will need to visit a doctor who will conduct a basic assessment and then issue the birth control prescription. Note that, while you legally need a prescription for birth control pills, it appears that some pharmacies may sell them over-the-counter without a prescription. Spanish pharmacies also tend to be rather liberal in dispensing hormonal birth control if you they know you have any prescription, past or present (including a foreign one), if you have a strong rapport with the pharmacist or if you bring an empty box of the birth control that you are seeking out.
