Abstract
Adolescent women have high rates of contraceptive discontinuation and inconsistent method adherence, which are key factors driving the persistently high rates of unintended teen pregnancies. Although several evidence-based interventions to reduce contraceptive discontinuation targeting young women exist, none are tailored to meet adolescents’ unique developmental needs. The Health Coaching for Contraceptive Continuation (HC3) intervention was designed as a developmentally-tailored program to help young women correctly and consistently use contraception. We examined the approaches health coaches used to support young women during the first 6-months after initiating a new contraceptive method.
