They will then be followed up 3 months from their visit through their contact option of choice (email, text, or call) to take an additional survey with similar sexual history questions and current contraceptive practices including if they have discussed hormonal contraception with their female partners, if their female partners are now using hormonal contraception, and impregnation rates of female partners.
