What the study is about

The goal of this study is to understand whether providing information to women with a strong desire to avoid future pregnancy about how tubal sterilization compares to long-acting reversible contraceptives improves perceived access to available contraceptives.

Participants will

  • Complete a baseline survey
  • Receive access to web-based educational resources
  • Complete a brief follow up survey immediately after exploring these web-based resources
  • Complete a follow-up survey 3 months after enrolling

The investigators will compare outcomes among participants provided with access to a new website (intervention) summarizing recent patient-centered outcomes research (PCOR) comparing interval laparoscopic tubal sterilization and long-acting reversible contraception (LARC) to control participants provided with access to the existing Planned Parenthood website on tubal sterilization.

Being studied: Control arm: Existing educational website; Advancing Access Website

Conditions: Contraception; Reproductive Behavior; Contraception Behavior
