Pressure and Pain: A Qualitative Pilot Study Describing the Complexity of Unhoused Women’s Experiences with Reproductive Care

Our data indicate that women experiencing homelessness (WEH) may prefer contraceptive conversations that are trauma-informed and rooted in a shared decision-making model, which in turn may help WEH develop more agency around their reproductive health care. This pilot study also emphasizes the need for more qualitative research to evaluate experiences directly in the population of interest.
