'''OVERVIEW''' | '''OVERVIEW''' | ||
As the capital of Russia, you will find many health care resources in Moscow. Contraception is widely available; birth control pills and condoms be purchased without a prescription. Emergency contraception requires a prescription yet appears informally available without one. You can receive STI/STD tests at many facilities, though you should be aware that foreigners who apply for long-term residency are expected to be HIV-negative (reports on the enforcement of this policy vary). There are some international hospitals and clinics, such as European Medical Center (EMC), that are widely used by foreigners. Abortion is legal for the first 12 weeks of gestation in Russia, and Russia has the highest per capita rate of abortions in the world. While abortion services at public hospitals are notably cheaper (and often free), the private hospitals will be more closely aligned with current medical standards (as advocated by WHO) and operate in more efficient manners. | |||

In Russia, you can obtain birth control pills and condoms without a prescription. | |||
In 2015, it was estimated that about 69% of Russian women (who were married/in unions and between ages 15 to 49) used any form of contraception, including traditional methods, and that about 10% of Russian women had unmet family planning needs. The most common forms of contraception for Russian women were the usage of male condoms with their partners (about 26%), IUDs (about 14%), and birth control pills (about 13%). The most common traditional method was withdrawal (about 12% of women) while the rhythm method was much less common (about 1%). There were low rates of usage for vaginal barrier methods (about 2%), female sterilization (about 1%), and practically no usage of contraceptive implants (0.0%) and contraceptive injectables (0.0%). | |||
Generally speaking, sex education remains very low in Russia, contributing to limited knowledge of contraceptive methods. Sex education is not compulsory in Russian public schools. It's estimated that only 5% of Russian teens have been educated on contraception and family planning.<ref>[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Women's_reproductive_health_in_Russia Women's Reproductive Health In Russia]</ref> | |||
Fortunately, contraception is becoming a more dominant method in Russian society. In 2003, the NYTimes reported, "For 50 years, Russian women relied on state-financed abortions as their main form of birth control. With pills, condoms and other contraceptives often in short supply, most women in Russia expected to face at least one and sometimes more than a dozen trips to the abortion clinic over their childbearing years. Now the Russian government is attempting to slow the abortion rate. It is an admirable goal, given the toll that multiple abortions have taken on the health and fertility of Russia's women."<ref>[http://www.nytimes.com/2003/09/02/opinion/birth-control-in-russia.html Birth Control in Russia]</ref> | |||

In Russia, you technically need a prescription to obtain emergency contraception (also known as "the morning after pill"). However, it appears that you can purchase EC at many pharmacies without a prescription. As reported by the European Consortium for Emergency Contraception, "Although a prescription is mandatory in order to purchase LNG EC and all types of hormonal contraceptives, anecdotal data suggests that EC pills can often be obtained without a prescription from pharmacies and that UPA EC can be obtained from neighboring countries via the Internet."<ref>[http://www.ec-ec.org/emergency-contraception-in-europe/country-by-country-information-2/russian-federation/ Russian Federation - Emergency Contraception in Europe]</ref> | |||

To do this, you take progestin-only oral contraceptives. For these brands, take 50 pills within 120 hours after unprotected sex. Here are the brands: Microlut<ref>[http://ec.princeton.edu/worldwide/ Princeton EC Website]</ref> | |||

On January 1 2017, President Vladmir Putin announced the establishment of a national HIV registry. The government claims that the registry is not mandatory, but people may need to be registered in order to receive their HIV treatment. Although other countries have some form of HIV registry, including the USA, activists in Russia worry about this registry falling into the wrong hands. Tor read more about the registry, click [https://www.vice.com/en_us/article/how-russias-new-hiv-registry-puts-women-in-danger?utm_source=vicefbus here] and [http://www.hivequal.org/hiv-equal-online/russia-s-plan-to-combat-hiv-a-national-hiv-registry here]. | |||
If you are a tourist visiting Russia, there are no restrictions imposed based on your STI status. However, if you are applying to be long-term stay (i.e. over 3 months), and if you want a student or worker visa, you will probably be required to take some tests. If you test negative for HIV, you will be given an "HIV Certificate" that verifies that you're HIV-negative. If you test positive for HIV or TB, you may be expelled from the country. However, as reported by HIVTravel, "According to the feedback we received from a number of EU citizens, an HIV test is not required in order to apply for a work permit or a multy entry visa. We have no evidence that Russia has changed its policy. There might be a softening of requirements for citizens of specific countries."<ref>[http://www.hivtravel.org/Default.aspx?PageId=143&CountryId=149 RUSSIA - REGULATIONS ON ENTRY, STAY AND RESIDENCE FOR PLHIV]</ref> | |||
In Russia, HIV is on the rise and inadequate sex education exacerbates the problem. The first reported HIV diagnosis in Russia (then the USSR) was in 1984, but the Soviet Union denied any diagnoses until 1987. Furthermore, the authorities denied the existence and rejected studies of at-risk groups, such as men who have sex with men (MSM), sex workers and injection drug users (IDU). In the early 2000s, Russia began collaborating with the World Bank to form join projects aimed at combating HIV/AIDS and tuberculosis.<ref>[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HIV/AIDS_in_Russia HIV/AIDS In Russia]</ref> However, "Programs implemented largely through NGOs and funded by the Global Fund to Fight AIDS were terminated years ago, primarily because Russia sees itself as a global power who should be donating to other countries, not the recipient of help. The Russian government wants to present Russia as a strong, global leader, so it’s apparently willing to risk a few thousand extra deaths."<ref>[http://www.vice.com/read/russias-silent-but-deadly-aids-epidemic Russia's Silent But Deadly AIDS Epidemic]</ref> In 2014, in excess of 85,252 new infections were reported. Globally, one of eight new HIV infections is in Russia.<ref>[http://www.avert.org/professionals/hiv-around-world/eastern-europe-central-asia HIV AND AIDS IN EASTERN EUROPE & CENTRAL ASIA]</ref> Unsafe sex practices are reportedly very common in Russia, and condoms are completely rejected by many sexually-active people. Other common unsafe practices include sharing needles and using dirty needles in unofficial tattoo parlors. | |||

In Russia, abortion is fully legal for women over 16 years old. If women are under 16 years old, they must receive parental permission.<ref>[https://www.angloinfo.com/how-to/russia/healthcare/pregnancy-birth/termination-abortionTermination of Pregnancy and Abortion in Russia]</ref> In the first twelve weeks of gestation, all reasons for abortions are accepted, including to save the life of the woman, to preserve physical health, to preserve mental health, rape or incest, risk of fetal impairment, economic or social reasons or upon general request. To obtain an abortion, the patient must first give "informed consent," meaning she must formally consent to the abortion at least 48 before the procedure. The abortion must be performed by a licensed physician in a hospital or another recognized institution. Note that a doctor is allowed to refuse giving abortion services, unless it's medically necessary to save the life of a woman. If you get an abortion at a public hospital, you need a referral from a doctor. If you get it at a private hospital, you don't need a referral. | |||
After 12 weeks of gestation, abortion is sometimes permitted. You can receive an abortion within 28 weeks from conception, but this only under special circumstances, such as risk to a woman's life if the pregnancy continues, and the patient must receive special authorization from a committee of local physicians. | |||
After an abortion, a woman is entitled to 3 days of sick leave. They will also be directed to visit a family planning center to learn about contraceptive methods. | |||
Historically, Russia was the first European country to grant abortions upon request in 1920 (then under the Soviet Union). At that time, abortions were free of charge and so in demand that hospitals became congested with abortion patients. As a result, special clinics for abortion procedures opened up. From 1936-1955, abortion was made illegal in the Soviet Union. Following Stalin's death in 1955, it was once again made legal, and it was estimated in the 1950s and 1960s that the Soviet Union had some of the highest abortion rates in the world. After the fall of the Soviet Union, abortion remained very common in the country. This was also due to the closure of condom and IUD factories, making contraceptive options less available for many women. However, with the legalization of sterilization in 1993, abortion rates did begin to go down. In Russia today, abortion still remains incredibly common, and many women still appear to not regularly take contraceptives and have multiple abortions performed on them. While China has the most abortions in the world, Russia was found to have the most abortions per capita. In the last few years, there have been some legal and political challenges to the abortion law, such as the 2015 proposed fine if women obtained abortions outside state clinics and mandatory ultrasounds. | |||
However, public opinion remains generally pro-choice. As reported by AngloInfo, "In general, public opinion is that the woman has the right to choose between abortion and giving birth. Recently though, some thinking is that fathers should also have some right to take part in the decision making process. Most people support abortions being kept legal and the procedure should not be made complicated. However, there are some who believe it should be taken out of insurance packages for free medical care and should be a paid procedure."<ref>[https://www.angloinfo.com/how-to/russia/healthcare/pregnancy-birth/termination-abortionTermination of Pregnancy and Abortion in Russia]</ref> | |||
===What to Get & Where to Get It=== | ===What to Get & Where to Get It=== | ||
If you go to a state hospital, you'll need to be referred to a hospital. The abortion will generally be free (but you'll have to pay for anesthetic). You're more likely to get the dilation and curettage (75 percent in 2011) procedure. This procedure is not recommended by the World Health Organization and there are greater risks, particularly to fertility. The procedure requires anesthetic. You can also choose to vacuum aspiration or medical abortion (i.e. "the abortion pill") but these procedures are not free. | |||
If you go to a private hospital, you won't need a referral. There's a generally higher-level of care than at public facilities, and the abortion procedures comply with WHO guidelines. However, private hospitals are also more expensive. | |||
