Summary

This study looks at the safety of two HIV prevention methods (a long-acting shot and daily pills) in pregnant and breastfeeding women in Malawi. About 621 women who are already using or start these drugs during pregnancy will be followed along with their infants. The goal is to see if there are differences in pregnancy problems, mother's health, or baby's health between the two options.
