This study aims to evaluate long-term outcomes when the etonogestrel contraceptive implant is inserted at an alternative site located over the scapular. The study will evaluate the pharmacokinetics (i.e., drug levels) and side effect profiles of participants who have an etonogestrel contraceptive implant inserted at this alternative scapular site over the course of at least two years.

The goal of this research study is to learn more about how different uses of a numbing medication might affect pain levels while getting an IUD placed. The investigators are also studying participants opinions of their clinicians' empathy. The investigators are inviting patients who arrive at their clinic visit seeking an IUD. Usually, at University of California, San Diego (UCSD), for patients who have never delivered a baby, clinicians use a buffered paracervical block for before IUD placement. The purpose of this research study is to investigate whether a "buffered" (2 cc of sodium bicarbonate, 18 cc of 1% lidocaine) paracervical block (numbing medication given on both sides of the cervix) is effective in reducing pain during IUD placement in individuals with prior C-sections, the difference between buffered and unbuffered for nulliparous patients, and whether a medicated gel reduces pain with the paracervical block.

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if use of the HAPPI software can improve pharmacist-provided birth control services. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Does the HAPPI software make it easier for pharmacists to provide birth control services in their pharmacy? 2. Does the HAPPI software make it easier for patients to access birth control? Researchers will compare pharmacists' implementation and patients' access when using the HAPPI software and when not using the HAPPI software to see if the software improves implementation and access. Participants will include pharmacists and patients. Pharmacists will be asked to provide birth control services as normal while using the HAPPI software. Patients will be asked to receive birth control services from a pharmacist as normal, while using the HAPPI software.

The purpose of this pilot study is to evaluate the feasibility of a multi-component intervention to improve young female cancer survivors' engagement in goal-concordant reproductive health care. The investigators hypothesize that implementation of the intervention will result in increased young cancer survivors' engagement in goal-concordant reproductive health care.

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate how differences in specific parts of our DNA can influence how individual bodies break down the hormones contained within oral contraceptive pills, which could affect how well these birth control pills work to prevent pregnancy. The investigators are also interested in exploring how these differences in our DNA can also explain why patients taking the exact same formulation of birth control pill will experience very different side effects. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Do individuals with the CYP3A7\*1C variant have increased metabolism of both desogestrel and ethinyl estradiol when taking a combined oral contraceptive pill? * Do individuals with the CYP3A7\*1C variant experience higher rates of breakthrough ovulation while taking a desogestrel/ethinyl estradiol combined oral contraceptive pill? * What novel genetic loci are associated with alterations in steroid hormone pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics among a larger cohort of combined oral contraceptive pill users? Participants will take a specific formulation of combined oral contraceptive pill (desogestrel/ethinyl estradiol) and undergo the following procedures: * Blood draw to measure the amount of progestin and estrogen in their system from the combined oral contraceptive pill * Questionnaires to assess side effects possibly caused by the combined oral contraceptive pill * Blood draw to measure endogenous hormone levels and biomarkers that may be affected by the combined oral contraceptive pill * A transvaginal ultrasound to measure any ovarian follicles (optional procedure)

This trial is testing Ovaprene, a ring placed inside the vagina to prevent pregnancy without hormones. It aims to see how well it works, how safe it is, and if women find it acceptable. The study focuses on women who want a non-hormonal birth control option.

This trial is testing FemBloc, a procedure to block fallopian tubes and prevent pregnancy. It targets women who want a permanent form of birth control. The procedure works by stopping eggs from reaching the uterus. FemBloc is a procedure designed to block fallopian tubes and prevent pregnancy, similar to other permanent contraception methods.

The study aims to implement Using the Connect (UTC), an innovative, game-based intervention designed to increase protective factors and decrease adolescent pregnancies. This intervention will be implemented in Texas middle schools and community-based organizations. The long-term goal is to promote optimal health in youth and prevent adolescent pregnancy in populations disproportionately impacted by adolescent pregnancy and sexually transmitted infection (STI) rates. The short-term objective is to conduct a robust, multi-site clustered randomized controlled trial to evaluate implementation outcomes and the impact of UTC, a novel theory-based game developed using powerful and effective human-centered design (HCD) strategies, on intention to delay sexual activity.

This trial aims to adapt and test the HOP-STEP program at a new location to help women with lupus plan their pregnancies and use contraception more effectively. The program educates healthcare providers and restructures clinics to offer better support, especially in high-minority, high-poverty areas.

The purpose of the study is to learn more about menstrual changes in progestin contraception users. The investigators are hoping to find out what changes in the endometrium lead to different bleeding patterns during the first year of progestin contraception use. Participants will choose to receive the contraceptive implant (Etonogestrel implant also called Nexplanon) or the contraceptive injectable (Depo-medroxyprogesterone acetate (DMPA) also called Depo-Provera) for up to 12 months. They will be asked to have 4 endometrial biopsies over the course of the study, as well as blood draws, physical exams, and pregnancy tests. Participants will also use a daily text message or email diary to report bleeding patterns. This study's plan is to comprehensively phenotype bleeding patterns and profile the entire endometrium using single-cell RNA seq data (sCRNAseq).

This trial is testing hormonal birth control methods to see if they can help premenopausal women with IBD who have worse symptoms during their periods. By managing hormone levels, these contraceptives might reduce the severity of these symptoms.

The investigators propose a single site, single arm, open label mechanism of action pharmacodynamic pilot study of etonogestrel implant insertion prior to an luteinizing hormone (LH) surge. The investigators will evaluate ovulation rates via serum levels of reproductive hormones and transvaginal ultrasound findings following placement of an etonogestrel implant once the dominant follicle reaches a size of 15mm or greater, but prior to an LH surge, in persons with prior documented regular cycles and confirmed ovulation. The researchers' hypothesis is that ovulation will be inhibited if the etonogestrel implant is placed prior to an LH surge. Based on data from the Food and Drug Administration label for Nexplanon, etonogestrel rises to levels associated with ovulation suppression within 8 hours of placement. Given this rapid increase, it is therefore plausible to assume that ovulation can be inhibited by the implant if placed prior to an LH surge. This study is novel as there have been no published studies evaluating an etonogestrel implant for this indication. The contribution of this proposed research to the literature is significant because current recommendations from the Center for Disease Control (CDC) regarding timing of etonogestrel implant placement are stringent and not patient-centered. Any day insertion of the etonogestrel implant is supported by retrospective data and this pharmacodynamic data would further support the literature for any day insertion without the need for additional emergency contraception. If results support the investigators' hypothesis, it could increase access to contraception and decrease duplicative therapy.
