Dr. Soon's current research projects include the following:
Experiences with Contraception among Youth in Northern BC
Despite public health efforts, pregnancy rates among teens in rural and northern British Columbia are more than 100% higher than the provincial average. Many northern youth may be facing barriers to accessing and using contraception effectively. Ethnographic studies recently conducted in Fort St. James and Vanderhoof describe the perspectives of youth in accessing and using contraception, investigate the ways that gender, place and culture concomitantly affect youth’s experiences with contraception; and develop recommendations to tailor and target contraception interventions intended for youth in northern BC. Knowledge dissemination of the findings are currently underway, with the creation of a YouTube video for youth, meetings with senior public health and medical directors in the Northern Health Authority, and updates on youth contraception for public health and Aboriginal nurses. (Funded by the BC Medical Services Foundation and CIHR.)
Effectiveness of two emergency contraception agents
While hormonal emergency contraceptives (ECs) have the potential to reduce the risk of pregnancy, the comparative effectiveness of the Yuzpe regimen (estrogen and progestin) and the progestin-only levonorgestrel regimen is not yet well established. Dr. Soon's lab is using prescription, diagnostic, and reproductive health information from linkage of health databases to compare the effectiveness of the two EC regimens in a cohort of women who received ECs from pharmacists in British Columbia. This is the first population-based investigation related to ECs in the routine practice setting. (Funded by CIHR.)
