Summary
This study tested a web-based decision support tool called MyPath for women veterans aged 18-44. The tool helps them think about pregnancy goals and birth control before a VA primary care visit. Half of the 465 participants received a link to the tool before their appointment; the other half did not. Researchers wanted to see if the tool led to better discussions with doctors and more confident decision-making about reproductive health.
