Measure
Group 1 DOR + ETG
100mg DOR-containing ART \[oral tablet taken daily\] + 68mg ETG implant (follow up for 30 weeks) Etonogestrel (ETG) implant: Contraceptive progestin implants are thin rods inserted under the skin of a woman's arm. The most widely available implant in South Africa is currently Implanon®/Nexplanon®/Implanon NXT®, containing etonogestrel (ETG, 3-keto desogestrel). Implanon® consists of a single rod of ethylene vinyl acetate and contains 68 mg of ETG; it is manufactured by Merck and is approved for 3 years.
Group 2 DOR + IM DMPA
100mg DOR-containing ART \[oral tablet taken daily\] + 150mg IM DMPA (follow up for 18 weeks) Intramuscular depo-medroxyprogesterone acetate (IM DMPA): DMPA (150 mg of depo-medroxyprogesterone acetate (MPA)/ml IMI) is the most commonly used injectable contraceptive worldwide, and the most commonly used method of reversible injectable contraception in sub-Saharan Africa.
Group 3 DOR + SC MPA
100mg DOR-containing ART \[oral tablet taken daily\] + 104mg SC MPA (follow up for 18 weeks) Sub-cutaneous medroxyprogesterone acetate (SC MPA): SC MPA or Sayana® Press is a single-dose container with 104 mg medroxyprogesterone acetate (MPA) in 0.65 mL suspension for injection. Sayana® Press is indicated for medium-long term female contraception.
Group 4 DOR + IUD
100mg DOR-containing ART \[oral tablet taken daily\] + 1 non-hormonal IUD device (follow up for 30 weeks) Non-hormonal intrauterine device (IUD): The NOVA T-380 non-hormonal IUD consists of a T-shaped polyethylene frame wound with copper wire, along with two monofilament threads to aid in removal of the IUD. IUDs may be left in place for up to 5 years.
Group 5 DTG + DMPA
50mg DTG-containing ART \[oral tablet taken daily\] + 150mg IM DMPA DMPA administered at enrolment (follow up for 18 weeks) Intramuscular depo-medroxyprogesterone acetate (IM DMPA): DMPA (150 mg of depo-medroxyprogesterone acetate (MPA)/ml IMI) is the most commonly used injectable contraceptive worldwide, and the most commonly used method of reversible injectable contraception in sub-Saharan Africa.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: at 2,4,8,12 weeks for IM DMPA and SC MPA or 2,4,8,12,20,24 weeks for ETG implants and IUD groups after contraceptive method initiation

Population: Data was collected at 2,4,8,12, 20 and 24 weeks for Group 1 DOR + ETG; at 2,4,8, and 12 weeks for Group 2 DOR + IM DMPA; at 2,4,8, and 12 weeks for Group 3 DOR SC MPA ; at 2,4,8 and 12 weeks for Group 5 DTG+DMPA. The Group 4 DOR+IUD group was not analyzed for hormonal concentrations as the group involves non-hormonal contraception, as per planned statistical analyses.
