Summary

There is currently limited research that addresses the unique medication safety and family planning needs among women of reproductive age with psychiatric conditions. The study will research the feasibility of a novel individualized 1-on-1 counseling session at the Gifford Clinic in the Department of Psychiatry at UCSD that will help women in this population better understand: 1) which of their medications are safe to use in pregnancy, 2) provide education regarding the importance of using contraception and which contraceptive choices are available to them, and 3) raise awareness of any drug-drug interactions that may exist between their medications and their chosen method of contraception. Patients will be given questionnaire to assess their contraceptive utilization. They will also be given a before and after quiz to allow for an objective measure of the patient's increase in knowledge regarding medication safety and contraceptive choices as a result of the investigators intervention.
