New website aims to empower patients against reproductive coercion
NCT ID NCT06764030
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This pilot study tested a website called BRIDGES that teaches family planning patients about reproductive coercion and how to stay safe. Researchers enrolled 156 people aged 18-29 at Planned Parenthood clinics in Michigan. The goal was to see if the website was easy to use and helpful, not to measure long-term health changes.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- educational website (BRIDGES)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could lead to a larger study and eventually a tool that helps patients recognize reproductive coercion and discuss it with their healthcare provider.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small pilot study focused on feasibility, not on proving health outcomes. The results may not apply to other clinics or populations.
