In Taiwan, you can purchase birth control without a prescription. While you need a prescription for emergency contraception (the morning after pill), you can use regular birth control as replacement ECPs. For more information on how to do this, you can visit the "Emergency Contraception (The Morning After Pill)" below. Regarding STIs, there are no travel restrictions related HIV status, and if you're a foreigner who tests HIV-positive, you will not be deported from Taiwan. If you are interested in getting an STI test, we have also found some recommended and LGBTQ-friendly testing services. You can find pads and tampons in Taiwan, although pads are generally more common than tampons. If you would like to buy a menstrual cup, the product is generally new to Taiwan, however some brands are either forming in Taiwan or shipping to Taiwan. Abortion is legal in some cases, as detailed in the "Abortion" section below. The "abortion pill" is available in Taiwan upon prescription (if one qualifies for the medication). | <onlyinclude>{{{sec1|In Taiwan, you can purchase birth control without a prescription.

<onlyinclude>{{{ | <onlyinclude>{{{sec2|Taiwanese people are understanding and strongly respect other people's privacy. There are low stigmas, as your health and way of life is your thing alone. For example, LGBT issues are not very polarizing in Taiwan and the LGBT community is making peaceful progress as awareness grows. The respect of social peace is expected from everyone at a level close to Japanese standards. Also, noise, drunkenness and aggressive behavior are deeply despised. It is known to be a very safe place for women.}}}</onlyinclude> | ||
