While there is certainly room for improvement, you can find many health care options in Serbia. You can purchase oral contraceptives (birth control pills) over-the-counter. No prescription is required. You can also purchase emergency contraception (the morning after pill) without a prescription. There are certainly some taboos around discussing sexuality and contraception, and this is in large part due to the nonexistent sex education in many Serbian schools. However, the country also does boast an array of contraceptive options, including pills, rings (e.g. Nuvaring), injectables and IUDs. You can receive STI tests at various clinics, and PEP is available for free. | While there is certainly room for improvement, you can find many health care options in Serbia.

While you can find pads and tampons in Belgrade, you may have some difficulty finding menstrual cups or certain eco-friendly menstrual products, so those should be purchased online. Regarding abortion, for the first ten weeks of pregnancy, abortion is completely legal in Serbia. If you're under 16 years old, you need permission from your parents to receive an abortion. On this page, we have included some recommended gynecologists and obstetricians (from locals), which you may find in the sections below. | ||
