Purpose
The purpose of this study is to assess acceptability and side effects of a low-dose injectable contraceptive formulation which is delivered under the skin (subcutaneously), as compared with injectable contraception delivered into the muscle (intramuscularly) among adult HIV-positive women who attend mobile clinics for HIV care and wish to use injectable contraception. The investigators will also assess experiences experiences delivering these two types of injections among health care providers working within the HIV care clinics.

Primary Outcome Measures:
- Preferred injection method [ Time Frame: 6 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Preference for subcutaneous injection, intramuscular injection, or no preference between the two
Secondary Outcome Measures:
- Acceptability, satisfaction, and problems encountered with subcutaneous injection versus intramuscular injection, as reported by HIV/family planning care providers [ Time Frame: Baseline, 10 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]E.g., problems encountered, preference to give more, same amount, or fewer of each kind of injection, advantages and disadvantages of each kind of injection, difficulty of administration, perception of client experience, which type of injectable prefers to administer, whether preferences are impacted by HIV status of client
- Hypothetical acceptability of contraceptive injections provided by community health care worker, trained and trusted friend or family member, or self-administration [ Time Frame: Baseline, 3 months, 6 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]In this study, all injections will be provided by a trained medical professional, but we will ask women if they would hypothetically find provision by community health workers, a trained trusted friend or family member, or self-administration acceptable
- Pregnancy incidence [ Time Frame: 3 months, 6 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Will not be compared according to study product, since all participants will utilize both products in this crossover trial.
- Side effects [ Time Frame: Baseline, 3 months, 6 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Including pain/injection/soreness at injection site and other reported side effects
- Continuation of use of injectables [ Time Frame: 3 months, 6 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Proportion of enrolled women who continue using injectable contraception at follow up visits
- Future use intentions [ Time Frame: Baseline, 3 months, 6 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Whether plans to use injectable contraception again in three months
- Likelihood of recommending method to a friend [ Time Frame: Baseline, 3 months, 6 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]How likely participant would be to recommend this contraceptive method to a friend
- Level of satisfaction with method [ Time Frame: Baseline, 3 months, 6 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Level of satisfaction with method of contraception injection received
