The Sexual and Reproductive Health reports and data explorer cover the following topics: first heterosexual sex, heterosexual sexual behaviours, sexual orientation, contraception, pregnancy planning, sexually transmitted infections and non-volitional sex.
The results come from the 2014/15 New Zealand Health Survey. Adults aged 16–74 years who had completed the 2014/15 survey were invited to participate in the sexual and reproductive health module, and this was completed by 87% (n = 10,198) of eligible respondents. This sample consisted of 2,460 Māori*, 619 Pacific, 814 Asian and 7,542 European/Other. For privacy reasons, questions in the sexual and reproductive health module were self-completed by respondents. The Health Survey is voluntary and people can stop at any time.
