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
