Laws & Social Stigmas

In Australia, you will need a prescription from a physician to obtain birth control. However, these consultations are usually pretty straight-forward and do not typically require pelvic exams.

What to Get & Where to Get It

While you may consult with many physicians for a birth control prescription, here are some recommendations:

  • The Royal Women's Hospital: "The Women’s is Australia’s first and largest specialist hospital dedicated to improving the health of all women and newborns." Address: 20 Flemington Rd, Parkville, Victoria. Main Reception Phone: (03) 8345 2000.
