Abstract Razdoblje adolescencije je vrijeme puno izazova i promjena gdje mladi ljudi stupaju u fazu intenzivnog fizičkog, emocionalnog i socijalnog razvoja. U ovom osjetljivom razdoblju, pitanja vezana uz spolnost i reproduktivno zdravlje postaju sve izraženija i važnija. Upravo zbog toga, poznavanje, razumijevanje i primjena kontracepcije iznimno su bitni za očuvanje zdravlja i dobrobiti adolescenata. Tijekom izrade ovog završnog rada fokus je bio na istraživanju percepcija, stavova i ponašanja adolescenata u kontekstu reproduktivnog zdravlja, s posebnim naglaskom na kontracepciju. Istraživanje je obuhvatilo studente preddiplomskog studija sestrinstva i fizioterapije i studente diplomskog studija sestrinstva – menadžment u sestrinstvu Sveučilišta Sjever, ukupno uključenih 90 studenata u razdoblju od 21. rujna 2023 do 18. listopada 2023. Cilj je bio razumjeti koliko su mladi informirani o različitim metodama kontracepcije, koje stavove zauzimaju prema korištenju kontraceptiva te kako društveni, obrazovni i obiteljski faktori utječu na njihove odluke i prakse u vezi s kontracepcijom. Od ukupnog broja sudionika čak 61 sudionik (67,8%) je spolno aktivan. Sudionici su većinom koristili kontracepcijske metode, njih 35 (38,9%), dok ih samo 8 (8,9%) sudionika nije koristilo. Značaj obrazovanja o spolnosti ističe se kao važan u osnaživanju adolescenata da donose odgovorne odluke o vlastitom reproduktivnom zdravlju. Rad također adresira potrebu za sveobuhvatnim pristupom koji uključuje podršku obitelji, obrazovnih i zdravstvenih ustanova u pružanju točnih informacija i resursa mladim ljudima. Ovaj završni rad potvrđuje važnost integriranog pristupa u promicanju zdravog reproduktivnog zdravlja adolescenata, naglašavajući kako informiranost, otvoreni dijalog i pristup kontracepcijskim sredstvima mogu značajno doprinijeti smanjenju rizika od neželjenih trudnoća i spolno prenosivih bolesti među mladima.
