    Birth control
    Hi,
    I am 27 and living in Korea. I have a query about birth control. The contraceptive pill is available over the counter in Korea and you do not need a Dr Prescription. I have never taken the pill before and want to start. It is hard for me to find a doctor where I am living that speaks good English. I visited a gynecologist for a checkup a few months ago. I asked about contraceptives in Korea and she told me to ask in the pharmacist. I was wondering if you could recommend what type of pill that I should take. I am fit and in good health. I am not overweight and have no history of clots or breast cancer in my family. My periods are regular but can sometimes be up to7 day late. I am not looking to take an extremely strong dose and would like to minimize the rise of side effects.
    I look forward to hearing from you,
