- Abstract
<bold>Background and Objectives: </bold>Opioid use disorder (OUD) during pregnancy challenges public health. This study examines how pregnancy intention affects OUD treatment.<bold>Methods: </bold>The primary exposure and outcome were pregnancy intention and treatment duration among MOTHER (Maternal Opioid Treatment: Human Experimental Research) participants (N = 175).<bold>Results: </bold>Treatment durations were longer (21.3 vs. 16.3 weeks; p = .01) among intended (n = 29) compared to unintended (n = 146) pregnancy participants, but this was not significant in adjusted analyses.<bold>Discussion and Conclusions: </bold>Unintended pregnancies intersect with OUD and may modify one's treatment outcomes.<bold>Scientific Significance: </bold>OUD treatment may be a setting to help women implement informed family planning choices.
