In Lebanon, you can purchase hormonal birth control without a prescription at pharmacies. There are plenty of pharmacies in Beirut, and while attitudes may vary by neighborhood and individuals, there is a generally open and liberal attitude toward contraceptives. In 2007, it was estimated that 58% of Lebanese women use some form of contraception. In Beirut, it was estimated that 26% of women use oral contraceptives, 20% use IUDs, 24% use natural family planning (also known as the "fertility awareness method"), 16% use the withdrawal method and 15% use other methods.[1]
