NCT ID NCT05909176

First seen Jul 10, 2026 · Last updated Jul 10, 2026

Summary

This study tests a program called Start the Conversation, designed to help Black cisgender women learn about and start taking PrEP—a daily pill that prevents HIV. The program includes training for gynecology residents to discuss PrEP with patients, plus a social media campaign. Researchers will track how many women have the conversation and how many start PrEP.
