This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This study is testing a new care package designed specifically for pregnant teenagers and young women living with HIV in Tanzania. The package may include support from peer mentors (other women who've been through this), ways to involve partners, flexible clinic hours, and phone reminders—all to help young women take their HIV medicines consistently and prevent passing HIV to their babies. The goal is to see if this new approach works better than standard care.
In Tanzania and across Sub-Saharan Africa, many pregnant teenagers and young women with HIV don't get the care they need, leading to higher rates of babies being born with HIV. Standard care isn't designed with young women's specific challenges in mind, so this study is exploring whether a tailored care package can improve treatment success and protect their babies.

If you join, you'll receive HIV care at a participating clinic in Tanzania either under the new care package (which may include peer support, partner involvement, flexible hours, and reminders) or standard care. You'll be followed for at least one year, with regular clinic visits to check your HIV medicine adherence, viral load (how much HIV is in your blood), and your baby's health. The research team will also ask you questions about your experience and what would help you stay on track with your treatment.
