Join Dr. David Turok and Dr. Hilary Reno to discuss emerging research that supports emergency contraception and post-exposure prophylaxis for sexually transmitted infections, including HIV. Studies have shown that PEP and EC are appropriate for prophylaxis following unprotected intercourse. Additionally, DoxyPEP shows promise as a preventive measure for gonorrhea, chlamydia, and syphilis.
Learning Objectives
1. Describe current research findings about the safety and efficacy of all methods of emergency contraception.
2. Describe current research findings about PEP (post-exposure prophylaxis for HIV).
3. Describe current research findings and future research needed for doxyPEP, including the role of anatomic differences in efficacy.
4. Identify key assessment and clinical management components for a client interested in using EC, PEP, or doxyPEP, including time and type of sexual activity.
5. Discuss client-led counseling and education approaches for candidates interested in EC, PEP, or doxyPEP.

Founded as the National Clinical Training Center for Family Planning (NCTCFP) in 2006, we changed our name to the Clinical Training Center for Sexual and Reproductive Health (CTC-SRH) in 2023. We have been funded by the Office of Population Affairs at the Department of Health and Human Services since inception and remain the primary source of clinical training for those providing sexual and reproductive health care in federally-funded settings.
Having served the Title X network for nearly two decades, our team of clinical experts recognized that the term “family planning” falls short of describing the client-centered and inclusive sexual and reproductive health services we offer, especially in an increasingly urgent and rapidly shifting healthcare landscape.
The newly-renamed Clinical Training Center for Sexual and Reproductive Health (CTC-SRH) continues to provide evidence-based clinical training and resources to healthcare providers in Title X settings through increased healthcare quality, equity, and access.
