Abstract:
:Norinyl 1+50 oral contraceptive pills contain 1 mg of the progestin, norethindrone, and .05 mg (or 50 mcg) of the estrogen, mestranol. These pills can either be taken in 21-day or 28-day therapy cycles. This dosage is low but effective. Oral contraception is supposed to prevent pregnancy by suppressing ovulation and by causing changes in the endometrium and cervical mucus. Contraindications are: 1) a history of thrombosis or cerebral disorders, 2) liver dysfunction, 3) suspected breast cancer, 4) suspected estrogen-dependent neoplasia, and 5) undiagnosed abnormal genital bleeding. Close surveillance of women taking oral contraceptives is recommended. The areas to be closely examined periodically are listed. Adverse reactions and warning signs are enumerated. A warning is issued of increased risk of the following conditions due to oral contraceptive therapy: 1) thrombotic disorders, 2) neuroocular lesions, and 3) fluid retention and hypertension.
