NCT ID NCT04584294

First seen Nov 06, 2025 · Last updated Apr 28, 2026 · Updated 21 times

Summary

This study tested a web-based decision support tool called MyPath, designed to help women veterans discuss their reproductive goals—like planning a pregnancy or choosing birth control—with their VA doctors. About 465 women took part, with half receiving a link to the tool before their appointment and half not. The goal was to see if the tool led to better conversations and more confident decision-making about reproductive health.
