Observational study of the acceptability of Sayana® Press among intramuscular DMPA users in Uganda and Senegal

This study measured acceptability of DMPA-SC (Sayana® Press) among intramuscular DMPA (DMPA-IM) users. Current DMPA-IM users in Senegal and Uganda accepted DMPA-SC, and most preferred DMPA-SC over DMPA-IM. DMPA-SC can be safely introduced into family planning programs and administered by trained community health workers, with expectation of client uptake.
