Call for Papers: Improving Reproductive Health Among Vulnerable Women
Women who are members of vulnerable populations based on limited income, or demographic characteristics such as age, race or ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation or sexual preference, religion, disability, or lack of insurance are at increased risk of receiving disparate medical care.

Aims and scope
Contraception and Reproductive Medicine is an online, open-access, peer reviewed journal that is designed to promote the advancement of contraceptive technology particularly in the areas of education, effectiveness, safety, research interest, improved or new technologies, non-contraceptive benefits, and long-term health. The journal publishes articles on all areas of female and male contraceptive technology, clinical and basic trials, meta-analyses, reviews, international submissions, and editorials. All manuscripts submitted to Contraception and Reproductive Medicine should adhere to BioMed Central's editorial policies.
Contraception and Reproductive Medicine is affiliated with the CROWN initiative, Core Outcomes in Women’s Health. CROWN is an international initiative, led by journal editors, to harmonise outcome reporting in women’s health research. We are coming together to address the widespread, unwarranted variation in reporting of outcomes.
