Make your own choice

It is important that you can make your own decisions about pregnancy and contraception. If you feel that you are being pressured into making decisions, visit Children by ChoiceOpens in a new tab for information on reproductive coercion and abuse, or call 1800RESPECT on 1800 737 732.

Are you under 18 years old?

You can use the tool on your own or with someone you trust. If you'd like support, but don't have an adult you feel safe with, you can visit a GP or sexual health clinic. Alternatively, you can call Kids Helpline on 1800 55 1800 for general support and advice about contraception and any other issues. It's free, and what you talk about stays private (that means just between you and them). You can also visit their website: https://kidshelpline.com.au/Opens in a new tab
