Brief answer....given below
Detailed answer....
Hello,
Thanks for the query.
MICROGYNON ED contains LEVONORGESTETOL .15 mg and ETHYNLESTRADIOL .03 mg.
There are plenty of similar products having same constituents which are available in CANADA which you can buy.
These are ....
ALESSE
MINI-OVRAL
TRIQUILAR
TRIPHASIL
Since online doctors are prohibited from issuing any prescription,you would have to either go to pharmacy to look for any of these products if available as OTC product or you have to procure a prescription by consulting a local doctor.
I hope it helps,however you may revert to me for any further query.
Best of luck
Thanks
