What this trial studies

This interventional trial tests whether the Mittin program, added to standard contraception services, helps women aged 15-49 in Addis Ababa align their contraceptive choices with their preferences and improve satisfaction. Participants are randomized by site to receive either standard care or enhanced Mittin services, with surveys at enrollment, 4 months, and 8 months to gauge outcomes. The study is conducted at public health centers in Addis Ababa and is led by UCSF with Ethiopian collaborators and funders. The objective is to determine if Mittin improves preference-aligned fertility management and continued method use. No phase information is provided for this study.
