Baylor Eswatini

Baylor Swaziland follows the four- pronged approach to PMTCT: preventing HIV, preventing unintended pregnancies in women with HIV, preventing HIV transmission from mothers to infants, and supporting those who are HIV positive. Reducing unintended pregnancies in women, especially among adolescents and HIV-positive women, is also a part of the government’s SRH strategic plan. Baylor Swaziland supports this mission by providing a broad range of family planning methods, ranging from condoms to hormonal contraception We provided contraceptives to 613 women during the 2016-2017 year, including oral, injectable and implanted. Oral contraceptives remain the most preferred method overall, though younger women and girls prefer injectable commodities, and the number of implanted contraceptives has grown.
