Although, similar to the uk, a large propertion of teenagers are sexually active, teenage pregnancies are not so common in n.c as compared to say, the uk.

In the UK birth control pills etc are all free and yet pregnancy brates are still high. Im n.c im assuming you have to pay - but the end result doesnt add up!

Are all the same things such as daily pill, morning after etc available?

Some years ago i spoke to my gynaecologist here in N.Cyprus about this subject and was informed that abortion was the main form of birth control. Shocking but apparently true!

High family morals and self respect... Not saying it does not happen, it does but it's rare.....

I too have heard that abortions are VERY common, particularly suction etc, which is probably lead by the, as rightly stated, high morals, family respect etc.

It is Muslim country, and a lot of families, while not openly going to the mosque and daily prayers etc. do still have a high moral code, and try to bring their children up accordingly.
