Filter by:The feasibility of Sayana Press self-injection and the potential for this practice to increase contraceptive continuation has never been assessed in family planning programs in low-resource settings. The Malawi Ministry of Health (MOH) and the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) Malawi Mission requested the Advancing Partners and Communities (APC) project to assess self-injection of Sayana Press to inform their decision-making for procurement of Sayana Press and distribution through the health system in Malawi.
Investigators propose a randomized controlled trial of women taking category D or X medications seen in family medicine, internal medicine or in the Coumadin Clinic. Women in the intervention group will receive an electronic medical record referral for teratogen counseling and contraceptive counseling with a follow up contraceptive provision appointment. The contraceptive counseling will be adapted from The Contraceptive CHOICE Project script and promote the use of the long acting reversible contraception. The women in the control group will also receive an electronic medical record referral and receive the teratogen counseling but only be told that it is important to avoid becoming pregnant. An initial survey will assess contraceptive knowledge and utilization. In addition, there will be telephone survey at 3 months and 6 months to assess contraceptive utilization and continuation.
There is currently limited research that addresses the unique medication safety and family planning needs among women of reproductive age with psychiatric conditions. The study will research the feasibility of a novel individualized 1-on-1 counseling session at the Gifford Clinic in the Department of Psychiatry at UCSD that will help women in this population better understand: 1) which of their medications are safe to use in pregnancy, 2) provide education regarding the importance of using contraception and which contraceptive choices are available to them, and 3) raise awareness of any drug-drug interactions that may exist between their medications and their chosen method of contraception. Patients will be given questionnaire to assess their contraceptive utilization. They will also be given a before and after quiz to allow for an objective measure of the patient's increase in knowledge regarding medication safety and contraceptive choices as a result of the investigators intervention.
This study will look at women's social communication about IUDs (intrauterine devices) and their attitudes and behavior related to IUD use. The researchers will design an online community where women can talk to each other about their experiences with birth control. We will examine whether social exposure to IUD users in this setting is associated with change in attitudes and behavior among women who have never had an IUD.
To demonstrate the contraceptive efficacy of LF111 . To demonstrate the safety and tolerability of LF111 and assessment of pharmacokinetics of LF111.
This study will evaluate LNG-IUD and Etonogestrel (ENG) Implant users who are willing to use their contraception beyond the end of the FDA-approved duration. ENG Implant users will also be offered to participate in an arm of the study that will randomize them to either keeping their implant in or having it removed and replaced with a new implant. Participants will be followed for up to three years.
This pilot study will: 1) demonstrate the feasibility of delivering CHOICES-TEEN with master's level mental health professionals within a juvenile justice setting; 2) determine acceptance of CHOICES-TEEN as measured by client adherence, retention, and treatment satisfaction; and 3) assess client improvement at 3-month follow-up (e.g., reduction of risk of HIV, nicotine-exposed pregnancy, and alcohol-exposed pregnancy).
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety of the TFV/LNG intravaginal ring (IVR), TFV-only IVR, and placebo IVR, evaluate pharmacokinetics (PK) of TFV and LNG, evaluate pharmacodynamic (PD) surrogates of contraceptive efficacy of LNG, and to evaluate acceptability of the IVRs.
The primary objective of the investigators study was to design a comprehensive and medically accurate contraception counseling mobile health application and evaluate the effects of this contraception counseling application on the contraceptive methods that patients selected and their knowledge of that method.
The study's purpose is to determine if early (2-3 week) versus traditional (6-8 week) postpartum follow up is associated with a higher rate of breastfeeding at 6 months. The study's hypothesis is that follow up at 2-3 weeks postpartum is associated with a higher rate of breastfeeding 6 months postpartum.
