I am going to be living in Turkey for a couple of months. I need to get health insurance. Should I get health insurance from my own country before I travel or can I get health insurance when I get there in Turkey. Also anyone have any advice on whats the best plan to get as I haven´t a clue!

Can anyone tell me if the contraceptive pill is available over the counter in Turkey or do you need a prescription? 

 

Appreciate any help!

 I think best option for you, to get an insurance before come to here. If something goes wrong with you, your insurance company will give you a direction. Of course its up to you.

I spent 2 months there last year and thank God I had travel insurance. I took out a 12 month travel policy with insure and go that gave me up to 90 days anyone trip.

Last October I had a ruptured appendix and got rushed into Bodrum Universal Hospital where they scanned me etc. and did an emergency operation.  I was in hospital for 3 weeks and my travel insurance paid for everything and dealt with the hospital direct.

DO NOT TRAVEL THERE WITHOUT IT.

Oh yeah I will definitely get some insurance. Do you think travel insurance covers you enough though? I find it is cheaper than health insurance but I am not sure if there is a big difference in what medical treatments you can avail of.

Carry your own contraceptive pills, safely tucked away in both pockets, just in case.

Turkish pills may be tricky; while in Turkey, you will never know when the need can arise.  

Oooops !

The pill may stop you getting pregnant, but will not stop you getting an STD

 Türkiye´ye gelince ilaçları tahtakale´den alıyorsun sanırım. O kadar uzaktan sallama istersen. Buradaki eczanelerde böyle şeyler olmaz !!!

Kendine bir kız arkadaş edinmeden, bilmediğin konularda konuşma...Büyüklerin işine karışma.

Sana laf düşmez bu konuda, ben bu ülkede yaşıyorum, sandığın gibi 3. dünya ülkesi değil burası. Kurtul komplexlerinden ve saçmalama !!!

Kız arkadaş edinmek için burda değilim, herşeye maydonoz olup belki artık vatandaşı bile olmadığın, gelip gitmediğin bu "ülke" için saçmalamak, gönderilen herşeye muhalefet edip, alaya almak yerine insanlara yardımcı olabilseydin, belki o zaman yaptıklarından dolayı saygı duyar, aşırı antipatik bulmazdım seni. Daha önce de söyledim okumuyorum yorumlarını, umursamıyorum da onları, ancak akşam ki yazdıkların, o kadar belli ediyor ki bilmeden salladığını. Tutamadım kendimi. Sandığın gibi şeyler olmuyor bu ülkede. Yaşımı bilmeden büyüklerin işine karışma gibi cümleler kurma istersen. Gerçi senden daha fazlasını beklemekte hata olur...

Sen bir Eczaneye uğra, burada dediklerini bir kontrol et. Eczacıya da inanmazsan, bir psikolog ile konuş...

Yaşadığını filan da zannetme...Senin dünyadan haberin yok 1
