This trial tests a new way to place a contraceptive implant (a small rod that prevents pregnancy) into the shoulder blade area instead of the arm. It might be a good option if you want long-term birth control and are healthy.
This trial tests a new contraceptive patch to see if it can prevent ovulation (the release of an egg). If you are a healthy woman looking for a non-hormonal birth control option, this study may be a good fit.
This early-phase study looks at doing an endometrial biopsy (a small tissue sample from the uterus) in people using a progestin-type contraceptive. It’s meant to test whether this approach works safely and how the uterus responds under these specific conditions.
This study checks whether placing a 52 mg hormonal IUD soon after sex (up to 5 days) or on the same day (under certain timing) is safe and works as birth control. You may be able to join if you need emergency contraception or want to start an IUD right away and meet clinic and pregnancy-safety checks.
This study compares two emergency contraception pills to see which works better. You take one pill after unprotected sex to help prevent pregnancy.
This study tests a new birth control pill to see how well it prevents pregnancy and if it's safe. It combines a lower dose of estrogen with a different type of progestogen that blocks male hormones.
