NCT ID NCT07184229
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests whether motivational interviewing, a type of counseling that helps people make their own health decisions, can improve attitudes and intentions toward modern birth control methods. The study will include 120 women in Turkey who currently use traditional methods like withdrawal. Researchers will measure changes in attitudes and intentions using questionnaires.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- motivational interviewing-based family planning counseling
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this counseling approach could help more women choose effective modern contraception, reducing unintended pregnancies.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-stage behavioral study with only 120 participants. Results may not apply broadly, and counseling may not change actual behavior.
