Effect of a once weekly oral contraceptive upon gonadotrophin and gonadal steroid levels.

Abstract:

:A moderately effective oral progestogen contraceptive, R-2323 (13beta-ethyl-17alpha-ethynyl-17-hydroxy-gona-4,9,11-trien,3-one), was administered weekly in doses of 2.5 mg and 5 mg to 5 subjects each for 8 weeks. In 2 of the 10 treatment cycles of 2.5 mg and 4 of the 10 treatment cycles of 5 mg, progesterone levels indicative of anovulation were obtained. In each of these cycles, an absence of the midcycle luteinizing hormone (LH) peak was noted. In an additional 5 cycles with absence of an LH peak, ovulatory steroid patterns were present. The remaining 9 cycles showed gonadotropin and steroid patterns consistent with ovulation. It is concluded that the main contraceptive mechanism is probably other than inhibition of ovulation. Increased viscosity of the cervical mucus is considered a possible means of contraception.
