Understanding the Influence of PrEP Motivations and Concerns on PrEP Use Among Pregnant Women in Lilongwe, Malawi
Understanding PrEP misconceptions and their impact on PrEP initiation and use among pregnant and lactating women in Malawi
Mother-to-child transmission (MTCT) of HIV remains a challenge in Eastern and Southern Africa. Oral pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) is a powerful tool to reduce MTCT, but women face barriers to effective use including those related to inaccurate comprehension of PrEP To understand women’s misconceptions about PrEP and their potential impact on PrEP use, we conducted interviews with 33 pregnant and lactating women in Malawi using PrEP, and ten PrE…
Comparing youth-friendly clinics to the standard of care for adolescent girls and young women in Malawi
Adolescent girls and young women (AGYW) in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) face difficulties accessing sexual and reproductive health (SRH) services. Youth-friendly service delivery models may prove an alternative to increase SRH service uptake. This analysis utilises evidence from the Girl Power-Malawi study, a study designed to compare the impact of different models of service delivery on SRH service uptake for AGYW. Three intervention clinics trained…

Acceptability of a Combination Adherence Strategy to Support HIV Antiretroviral Therapy and Pre-exposure Prophylaxis Adherence During Pregnancy and Breastfeeding in Malawi
Contextualising men’s role and participation in PMTCT programmes in Malawi and Zambia
This study sought to explore and contextualise the man's role in antenatal services, and the barriers and strategies for engaging men in prevention of mother-to-child HIV transmission (PMTCT). We conducted 143 interviews with pregnant and breastfeeding women, male partners, health workers and policy makers in Malawi and Zambia. We employed thematic and critical discourse analysis using the hegemonic masculinity perspective. We found that men's ro…
The mediating role of partner communication on contraceptive use among adolescent girls and young women participating in a small-group intervention in Malawi
Though effective reproductive health interventions have been developed for adolescent girls and young women (AGYW) in sub-Saharan Africa, few have explored whether specific components of the interventions are responsible for observed changes in behaviour. Data for this longitudinal mediation analysis come from a quasi-experimental, sexual and reproductive health study conducted among AGYW (age 15-24) in Malawi. We assessed the extent to which the…
Contraceptive Conversations among Adolescent Girls and Young Women and Their Partners, Peers, and Older Female Family Members in Lilongwe, Malawi
In sub‐Saharan Africa, adolescent girls and young women (AGYW) have high levels of unmet need for contraception, particularly those who are unmarried or nulliparous. Conversations with partners, peers, and family members influence AGYW contraceptive decision‐making yet little is known about conversation content and impact or how they vary by relationship status and parity. This paper draws on qualitative data from 60 AGYW (aged 15–24) participati…
The relationship between intimate partner violence and probable depression among adolescent girls and young women in Lilongwe, Malawi
This analysis estimates prevalence of intimate partner violence (IPV) and its association with probable depression among adolescent girls and young women (AGYW) in Lilongwe, Malawi, and whether partner's controlling behaviour modifies this relationship. Baseline data was utilised from the Girl Power-Malawi study of 1000 15-24-year-old AGYW in Lilongwe. Emotional, physical, and sexual IPV experiences with a current or recent partner were measured …
