Developing Contraceptive Decision-Making Profiles via Latent Class Analysis
Changes in Contraceptive Services During Utah’s Family Planning Elevated Contraceptive Access Initiative
Objectives. To assess contraceptive service changes during the Family Planning Elevated (FPE) Contraceptive Access Program in Utah clinics from 2018 to 2023. Methods. We assessed de-identified electronic health record data on female clients aged 18 to 50 years from intervention and matched control sites. We used comparative interrupted time series analyses comparing total number of contraceptive services and their proportion relative to visits be…
Vasectomy Knowledge and Interest Among U.S. Men Who Do Not Intend to Have More Children
Vasectomy is used less often than female sterilization, and many men who do not want more children may lack accurate information about vasectomy. Between May and June 2018, we used a nationally representative online panel to survey U.S. men between 25 and 55 years of age who did not want more children about their vasectomy knowledge. We also asked about interest in undergoing the procedure if it were free or low cost and explored whether a paragr…
Sex, poverty, and public health
Financial scarcity appears to constrain sexual wellbeing. To support positive sexual health, the public health field must continue to focus on economic reform, poverty reduction, and dismantling of structural classism as critical aspects of helping people achieve their full health and wellbeing potential. ClinialTrials.gov Identifier: NCT02734199
Implementation and Monitoring of the Family Planning Elevated Contraceptive Access Program, Utah, 2018‒2019
Family Planning Elevated (FPE) is a contraceptive access initiative in Utah. FPE designed and utilized a comprehensive monitoring system to identify and respond to challenges implementing our initiative as they arose. Here, we describe the components of our monitoring system, and highlight how FPE’s monitoring system successfully identified that Utah’s Medicaid expansion was not widely adopted by eligible individuals. We then describe how FPE ada…
Contraceptive Method Uptake at Title X Health Centers in Utah
Sexual Functioning, Satisfaction, and Well-Being Among Contraceptive Users
Few large, longitudinal studies document multiple contraceptive methods’ effects on sexual functioning, satisfaction, and well-being. We leveraged data from the HER Salt Lake Contraceptive Initiative, a prospective cohort study with patient surveys at baseline, one month, and three months. Surveys assessed bleeding changes, contraceptive-related side effects, sexual functioning and satisfaction, and perceptions of methods’ impact on sexual well-b…
Family Planning Knowledge, Attitudes, and Practices Among Somali and Congolese Refugee Women After Resettlement to the United States
It is crucial for refugee service providers to understand the family planning knowledge, attitudes, and practices of refugee women following third country resettlement. Using an ethnographic approach rooted in Reproductive Justice, we conducted six focus groups that included 66 resettled Somali and Congolese women in a western United States (US) metropolitan area. We analyzed data using modified grounded theory. Three themes emerged within the fa…
Distance matters
Women Veterans who experience homelessness are at high risk of unintended pregnancy and adverse outcomes. Contraception could mitigate risks, yet access barriers exist across the Veterans Health Administration (VHA). We identified all US women Veterans, age 18-44y with evidence of homelessness in VHA administrative data between fiscal years 2002-2015, in order to document the geographic distribution of ever-homeless women Veterans in relation to …
Fertility Intentions and Perspectives on Contraceptive Involvement Among Low‐Income Men Aged 25 to 55
Some low-income adult men were uncertain about their pregnancy desires, and many lacked contraceptive knowledge that would help them avoid unwanted pregnancy. Research is needed to identify the types of programs that could effectively promote men's constructive engagement in preventing pregnancies over their reproductive life course

Contraceptive Method Use During the Community-Wide HER Salt Lake Contraceptive Initiative
Objectives. To describe a community-wide contraception initiative and assess changes in method use when cost and access barriers are removed in an environment with client-centered counseling. Methods. HER Salt Lake is a prospective cohort study occurring during three 6-month periods (September 2015 through March 2017) and nested in a quasiexperimental observational study. The sample was women aged 16 to 45 years receiving new contraceptive servic…
Do 72-Hour Waiting Periods and Two-Visit Requirements for Abortion Affect Women's Certainty? A Prospective Cohort Study
State-Mandated (Mis)Information and Women's Endorsement of Common Abortion Myths
Long-acting Reversible Contraception Among Homeless Women Veterans With Chronic Health Conditions
BACKGROUND: US women Veterans are at increased risk of homelessness and chronic health conditions associated with unintended pregnancy. Veterans Health Administration (VHA) provision of long-acting reversible contraception (LARC) can assist in healthy pregnancy planning. OBJECTIVES: To evaluate perinatal risk factors and LARC exposure in ever-homeless women Veterans. RESEARCH DESIGN: A retrospective cohort study of women Veterans using VHA admini…
The Longest Wait
Experiences of Advanced Practitioners with Inserting the Copper Intrauterine Device as Emergency Contraception
Utah's 72‐Hour Waiting Period for Abortion
As most women in this cohort were not conflicted about their decision when they sought care, the 72-hour waiting requirement seems to have been unnecessary. Individualized patient counseling for the small minority who were conflicted when they presented for care may have been more appropriate
Prevention of Recurrent Preterm Birth
The “Latina Epidemiologic Paradox”
