Recommendations regarding contraceptive counseling and reproductive health differ amongst transgender and gender diverse (TGD) youth compared to cis-gender youth. Limited existing literature demonstrates the need for contraceptive counseling that moves beyond cis- and heteronormative assumptions that start with pregnancy prevention and address concerns at the intersection of gender identity. The Investigator's qualitative study will focus on creating best practices regarding equitable contraceptive counseling for TGD youth. The Investigator will recruit transgender youth who are assigned female at birth, and currently or interested in using depo medroxyprogesterone (DMPA). Through focus groups and semi-structured interviews, the investigator hopes to guide providers in creating best practices and more equitable contraceptive counseling for TGD youth and measure satisfaction of DMPA in TGD youth.
