DMPA-SC training videos for family planning clients and health workers

These short training videos are intended for both self-injection clients and health workers learning to administer the contraceptive subcutaneous DMPA (DMPA-SC or Sayana® Press). DMPA-SC's user-friendly design means that any trained person can administer it, including community health workers, pharmacists, and even women themselves.

If you are interested in customizing these videos for your family planning program, we can make the voiceover script and video file available. To request these files, please email FPoptions@path.org.
