Hormonal postcoital contraception with an ethinylestradiol-norgestrel combination and two danazol regimens

European Journal of Obstetrics & Gynecology and Reproductive Biology, 1990
The ethinylestradiol-norgestrel combination (EE-NG) for postcoital contraception, as described by Yuzpe, has been shown to be an effective method but with frequent side effects. To overcome the problem of adverse effects a new approach using danazol was proposed, but the efficacy and acceptability of this treatment have not yet been tested in large ...

Mechanism of the Postcoital Contraceptive Effect of Luteinizing Hormone-Releasing Hormone: Ovarian Luteinizing Hormone Receptor Interactions*

Endocrinology, 1979
LHRH, via inducing inordinately high LH levels, can disrupt pregnancy in the rat. Based on studies indicating that LH can reduce gonadal content of its own receptor and thereby modify LH-dependent steroidogenesis, the effect of contragestational LHRH treatment on ovarian LH receptor dynamics was investigated.

The role of matching menstrual data with hormonal measurements in evaluating effectiveness of postcoital contraception

Contraception, 1999
The effectiveness of postcoital contraception can only be estimated.

Estimation of the fertile period and the day of ovulation are critical to calculate the expected pregnancies. The aim of this study

Mode of action of dl-norgestrel and ethinylestradiol combination in postcoital contraception. III. Effect of preovulatory administration following the luteinizing hormone surge on ovarian steroidogenesis

Fertility and Sterility, 1983
A combination of 1.0 mg dl-norgestrel and 0.1 mg ethinylestradiol was administered orally at 18 hours after the detection of luteinizing hormone rise and again at 30 hours in five healthy volunteers with normal menstrual cycles.

[Postcoital contraception with steroid hormones].

Zentralblatt fur Gynakologie, 1984
Large doses of estrogens employed for postcoital contraception have definitely been shown to be effective, but estrogens used in such high doses would result in a high incidence of side-effects. Therefore this method should be reserved for the occasional emergency. Postcoital estrogen-progestogen-combination is suitable for women exposed to an isolated

Comparative randomized double-blind study of high dosage ethinyloestradiol vs. ethinyloestradiol-norgestrel combination in postcoital hormonal contraception

1984
Over the last 15 years high dosages of ethinyloestradiol (5mg EE2) for 5 consecutive days have been used to prevent pregnancy after a single unprotected intercourse. Recently the use of a combination of 200 μg ethinyloestradiol and 2 mg dl-norgestrel (EE2 + norg) divided into two equal parts given within a 12 hour period has been proposed as an ...
