Last week, at #HIVR4P2024 in Peru, Nelly Mugo of @KEMRI_Kenya and Lisa Haddad of the @Pop_Council also shared research highlighting the need for choice when it comes to contraception and prevention of #HIV and other #STIs, as no single product will appeal to every person.

Expanding options may increase demand for prev products overall. Key considerations for intro inc.: smaller #DualPreventionPill (#DPP) size & user-friendly packaging + counseling & support on dual prevention for effective use. #HIVprevention @SanyuktaMathur #HIVR4P2024 #CBRPC

We are pleased to announce at #HIVR4P2024 that a 3-month #DapivirineVaginalRing will be as effective as the 1-month ring.
Findings suggest the 3-month ring could offer women a more affordable & convenient option, expanding #HIVprevention choices: bit.ly/3BvtYYl
