Interventions

  • MyPath Intervention — BEHAVIORAL
    MyPath is a novel patient-centered, reproductive planning decision support tool developed by the research team used to facilitate postpartum contraceptive decision-making among women with SUDs. Designed to facilitate high-quality decisions regarding pregnancy and contraception, MyPath helps women a) review their thoughts about pregnancy and children, b) learn about fertility and preconception health and c) prioritize their preferences for various contraceptive method characteristics (e.g. effectiveness, side effects). As such, MyPath uses a patient-centered approach to help women frame their contraceptive decisions in the context of their goals and health and is a critical first step towards addressing reproductive health inequities among women with SUDs.
  • Usual care — BEHAVIORAL
    Standard of Care
