What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

Study Overview Summary This randomized controlled trial will evaluate the effectiveness of structured counseling in improving the continuation rates of long-acting reversible contraception (LARC) among women in Islamabad, Pakistan, who present to family planning clinics for early removal of their contraception devices (copper-T IUD or Jadelle implant). The study, starting December 15, 2025, will recruit women from three federal government-approved clinics. The trial will randomly assign participants to either an intervention group, where they will receive culturally sensitive counseling to encourage continued use of LARC, or a control group, where contraception will be removed upon client request without counseling. The goal is to determine if structured counseling can increase the likelihood of women continuing their LARC method.
