How did you decide to become pregnant while taking PrEP? If it was planned, did you talk about the choice to become pregnant while taking PrEP with anyone before becoming pregnant (partner, friend or relative, healthcare provider)? What about after you became pregnant—did you talk with anyone (partner, friend or relative, health provider) about staying on PrEP during your pregnancy? How do male partners view the involvement of a female partner in research during pregnancy? What kinds of concerns do they have, and how do they view the role of women in decision making? Do men expect women to obtain permission from male partners or not, and what ethical rationale is offered? How do women think about partners’ role in decisions about their own health and health during pregnancy? How do women and healthcare workers navigate social and cultural expectations when evaluating a new intervention for use during pregnancy? What, if anything, is exceptional about HIV in such decisions? Probes included comparisons to decisions involving TB or malaria treatment by comparison.

 Note. PrEP = preexposure prophylaxis; TB = tuberculosis.
