Tiakina tō hauora ā-tōkai

Ko te ai me tētahi atu, ki te kore koe e tūpato, ka pā mai ētehi āhuatanga tē hiahiatia. Ka pā mai pea tētahi mate paipai (STI), ka hapū ohorere rānei. He pānga kino pea ō ēnei mea e rua, engari ko te tikanga ka taea ēnei te karo mēnā ka whai koe i ētahi whakatūpato.

Ko ngā tauira o aua whakatūpato ko:

ngā pūkoro ure
ngā pire ārai hapū (he ārai i te hapūtanga anake)
ngā kuhi ārai hapū (he ārai i te hapūtanga anake)
kōkuhu ārai hapū (IUD, IUSC) (he ārai i te hapūtanga anake)
ko ētahi mahi i tua atu i te ai, pērā i te kihikihi, awhiawhi, tītoi rānei.

Mō te hunga kua ai me te kore ārai, kāore rānei i mahi i te tikanga ārai hapūtanga, kei reira anō ētahi atu kōwhiringa mēnā kei te māharahara koe mō te hapūtanga. Ka taea e tētahi pire ārai hapūtanga ohotata te ārai i te hapūtanga, engari ia mēnā ka kainga i raro i te 72 haora (3 rā) o te mahi ai. Ka taea ēnei te hoko mai i tētahi taka rongoā, ngā whare haumanu Family Planning, tō rata rānei mō te ota rongoā.

Mēnā kei te mahi ai koe, me whakarite kei haere koe kia tirotirohia haerehia koe mō te STI.

Engari kaua e whakawhirinaki ki ēnei, ko te mea pai rawa mō te karo i te pānga mai o ngā mea ohorere ko te whai i ngā whakatūpato me te tūpato anō.

Many contraception options are available for low cost or free for people in Aotearoa who are eligible for publicly funded healthcare. This can also include consultation or counselling services.

Make sure you get to know the pros and cons of each form of contraception, and that you’re getting the protection you need. The pill or contraceptive implants, for example, can prevent pregnancies but not Sexually Transmissible Infections (STIs). You can get detailed information on contraceptive methods on the Sexual Wellbeing website. Sexual Wellbeing is also available for advice and clinic visits, and it’s all confidential. It’s also free if you’re under the age of 22.

Many Sexually Transmissible Infections (STIs) are easily treated, managed, or controlled. Some of them don’t have symptoms, so it’s important to get checked to protect yourself and your partner(s).

If you’re sexually active, make sure you’re having regular STI checks! You can check out Sexual Wellbeing as a starting point on where and when to get an STI test, but there are services available all over the country.

An unplanned pregnancy can lead to mixed feelings, and things that you’ve never considered before. It’s normal to be anxious, scared or not know what to do. Make sure you talk to someone you trust, or your doctor or a health professional. Raising a child is a long-term commitment so it’s important to discuss your expectations and feelings with someone who won’t judge you.

The Health Navigator website has an informative guide to your pregnancy options. Sexual Wellbeing also has a useful pregnancy section on their website.
