As the largest city in New Zealand, you will find many health care resources in Auckland. You need a prescription for hormonal birth control, but there are low-cost options for consultations and prescription appointments. While you don't need a prescription for condoms, they are much cheaper if you do receive a condom prescription. Emergency contraception (the morning after pill) is now available without a prescription, which is a rather new development with NZ. You can get a free STD/STI test at a local sexual health clinic, and there are many support networks for people with STIs, including herpes, HPV and HIV. There is a nationwide HPV vaccination program. PrEP is currently not yet available in NZ (as of January 2017). Abortion is only legal in very specific circumstances and is not available upon request.
