'''OVERVIEW''' | |||
As the largest city in Stockholm, you will find many health care resources. Birth control is widely available though a prescription is required. You can purchase emergency contraception (the morning after pill) without a prescription. You can also find ellaOne, the longest lasting emergency contraception, in Sweden. You can receive an STI/STD test at many health facilities. There is a national HPV vaccination program. However, as of January 2017, there is no PrEp program yet in Sweden. Abortion is legal and available upon request for the first 18 weeks of pregnancy. From 18 to 22 weeks of pregnancy, abortion is only permitted in certain circumstances and must receive official government approval. Overall, Sweden is known as a rather progressive country with strong LGBT community. However, like all countries, there are certainly areas to improve regarding health care and general accessibility. | |||
