This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This trial is testing a new way to help women learn about and decide whether PrEP (pre-exposure prophylaxis)—a daily medication that prevents HIV infection—is right for them. Researchers created an interactive, personalized decision tool that women can use before seeing their doctor, and they want to see if this tool helps women make better-informed choices about the medication compared to just watching a standard educational video.
Many women at risk for HIV don't know about prevention options or feel unsure about whether the medication is appropriate for them. This trial aims to find better ways to discuss the medication with women in clinics where they already receive sexual and reproductive health care, making it easier for doctors and patients to have informed conversations.

If you join, you'll be randomly assigned to either use an interactive personalized decision tool or watch an educational video before your regular clinic visit with your doctor. During that visit, you and your doctor can discuss whether the medication is right for you. You'll then complete follow-up interviews right after your visit and again at 3 and 6 months to share your thoughts about the experience and whether you started the medication.
