About this trial

The goal of this trial is to learn if a web-based decision aid designed to provide evidence-based information about vasectomy and other birth control options helps improve users' decision-making about birth control. The main questions it aims to answer are:

* Do people who use the decision aid have better knowledge about vasectomy? * Do people who use the decision aid have lower conflict with their decision?

Participants will:

* Use the decision aid (if they are assigned to the intervention arm). * Answer survey questions about their knowledge, decision-making, interest in vasectomy, and healthcare navigation experiences.
