A study was conducted to investigate the effect of informed consent content on baseline contraceptive knowledge. It is concluded that the design of informed consent materials need to maintain a balance between making sure that participants provide truly informed consent and educating participants in ways that do not compromise the evaluation of the effect of behavioral interventions.
