Abstract:
:For many years, it has been well documented that combined hormonal contraceptives increase the risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE). The third-generation pill use (desogestrel or gestodene (GSD)) is associated with an increased VTE risk as compared with second-generation (levonorgestrel) pill use. Other progestins such as drospirenone or cyproterone acetate combined with ethinyl-estradiol (EE) have been investigated. Most studies have reported a significant increased VTE risk among users of these combined oral contraceptives (COCs) when compared with users of second-generation pills. Non-oral combined hormonal contraception, such as the transdermal patch and the vaginal ring, is also available. Current data support that these routes of administration are more thrombogenic than second-generation pills. These results are consistent with the biological evidence of coagulation activation. Overall, the estrogenic potency of each hormonal contraceptive depending on both EE doses and progestin molecule explains the level of thrombotic risk. Some studies have shown a similar increased VTE risk among users of COCs containing norgestimate (NGM) as compared with users of second-generation pill. However, for this combination, biological data, based on quantitative assessment of sex hormone-binding globulin or haemostasis parameters, are not in agreement with these epidemiological results. Similarly, the VTE risk associated with low doses of EE and GSD is not biologically plausible. In conclusion, newer generation formulations of hormonal contraceptives as well as non-oral hormonal contraceptives seem to be more thrombogenic than second-generation hormonal contraceptives. Further studies are needed to conclude on the combinations containing NGM or low doses of EE associated with GSD.
