Like many Western European countries, Austria provides a relatively progressive health care environment. You can find a wide range of contraceptives, such as birth control pills, condoms, IUDs, birth control shots, birth control rings, birth control patches, and birth control injectables. However, most contraceptive methods require a prescription, which can either be administered by a health care professional in Austria or abroad. You can also get free contraceptive counseling at Pro:Woman, a health organization that focuses on sexual and reproductive health care. Furthermore, you can obtain emergency contraceptive pills (the morning after pill) without a prescription at pharmacies or clinics. You will need to pay out-of-pocket, as ECPs are not reimbursed by the Austrian health care system. | Like many Western European countries, Austria provides a relatively progressive health care environment.
