Primary outcomePrimary: Number of Participants Reporting IUC Use — 2; 4 Participants — p=0.89
Summary
This study will look at women's social communication about IUDs (intrauterine devices) and their attitudes and behavior related to IUD use. The researchers will design an online community where women can talk to each other about their experiences with birth control. We will examine whether social exposure to IUD users in this setting is associated with change in attitudes and behavior among women who have never had an IUD.
