  • Ocps) Used in the NM Family Planning Program (FPP
    The following slides are intended to familiarize nurses and clinicians with oral contraceptive pills (OCPs) used in the NM Family Planning Program (FPP). The FPP does not intend for this information to supersede the Family Planning Protocol particularly on the requirement for Public Health Nurses in the Public Health Offices to consult a clinician as stated in the Protocol when in doubt or if it is necessary to switch the client’s OCP type. 1 2 Combined oral contraceptives (COCs) contain two hormones; estrogen and progestin. In general, any combined OCP is good for most women who are eligible to take estrogen according to the CDC U.S. Medical Eligibility Criteria (MEC). Once again, refer to the US MEC chart to find out if OCP is a suitable choice for clients with specific health conditions. To learn a little bit about what each hormone does, the FPP is providing the following summary: Estrogen: provides endometrial stability = menstrual cycle control. A higher estrogen dose increases the venous thromboembolism (VTE) or clot risk but OCP clot risk is still less harmful than the clot risk related to pregnancy and giving birth. Progestin: provides most of the contraceptive effect by ‐Preventing luteinizing hormone (LH) surge /ovulation ‐Thickening the cervical mucus to prevent sperm entry. Two major OCP formations are available. Monophasic: There is only one dose of estrogen and progestin in each active pill in the packet; and Multiphasic: There are varying doses of hormones, particularly progestin in the active pills. 3 Section 3 of the FPP Protocol contains the OCP Substitute Table, which groups OCPs into 6 classes according to the estrogen dosage, the type of progestin and the formulations.

  • Norgestrel and Gestodene Stimulate Breast Cancer Cell Growth Through an Oestrogen Receptor Mediated Mechanism
    Br. J. Cancer (1993), 67, 945-952 '." Macmillan Press Ltd., 1993 Br. J. Cancer (1993), 67, 945-952 1993 Norgestrel and gestodene stimulate breast cancer cell growth through an oestrogen receptor mediated mechanism W.H. Catherino, M.H. Jeng & V.C. Jordan Department ofHuman Oncology, University of Wisconsin Comprehensive Cancer Center, 600 Highland Avenue, Madison, Wisconsin 53792, USA. Summary There is great concern over the long-term influence of oral contraceptives on the development of breast cancer in women. Oestrogens are known to stimulate the growth of human breast cancer cells, and this laboratory has previously reported (Jeng & Jordan, 1991) that the 19-norprogestin norethindrone could stimulate the proliferation of MCF-7 human breast cancer cells. We studied the influence of the 19-norprogestins norgestrel and gestodene compared to a 'non' 19- norprogestin medroxyprogesterone acetate (MPA) on MCF-7 cell proliferation. The 19-norprogestins stimulated proliferation at a concentration of 10-8 M, while MPA could not stimulate proliferation at concentrations as great as 3 x 10-6 M. The stimulatory activity of the 19-norprogestins could be blocked by the antioestrogen ICI 164,384, but not by the antiprogestin RU486. Transfection studies with the reporter plasmids containing an oestrogen response element or progesterone response element (vitERE-CAT, pS2ERE-CAT, and PRE15-CAT) were performed to determine the intracel- lular action of norgestrel and gestodene. The 19-norprogestins stimulated the vitERE-CAT activity maximally at 10-6 M, and this stimulation was inhibited by the addition of ICI 164,384. MPA did not stimulate vitERE-CAT activity. A single base pair alteration in the palindromic sequence of vitERE (resulting in the pS2ERE) led to a dramatic decrease in CAT expression by the 19-norprogestins, suggesting that the progestin activity required specific response element base sequencing.

  • Desogestrel-Only Pill (Cerazette)
    J Fam Plann Reprod Health Care: first published as 10.1783/147118903101197593 on 1 July 2003. Downloaded from Faculty of Family Planning and Reproductive Health Care Clinical Effectiveness Unit A unit funded by the FFPRHC and supported by the University of Aberdeen and SPCERH to provide guidance on evidence-based practice New Product Review (April 2003) Desogestrel-only Pill (Cerazette) Journal of Family Planning and Reproductive Health Care 2003; 29(3): 162–164 Evidence from a randomised trial has shown that a 75 mg (microgrammes) desogestrel pill inhibits ovulation in 97% of cycles. Thus, on theoretical grounds, we would expect the desogestrel pill to be more effective than existing progestogen- only pills (POPs). However, Pearl indices from clinical trials comparing it to a levonorgestrel POP were not significantly different. Therefore an evidence-based recommendation cannot be made that the desogestrel pill is different from other POPs in terms of efficacy, nor that it is similar to combined oral contraception (COC) in this respect. An evidence-based recommendation can be made that the desogestrel-only pill is similar to other POPs in terms of side effects and acceptability. The desogestrel-only pill is not recommended as an alternative to COC in routine practice, but provides a useful alternative for women who require oestrogen-free contraception. In clinical trials: l Ovulation was inhibited in 97% of cycles at 7 and 12 months after initiation. l The Pearl index was 0.41 per 100 woman-years, which was not significantly different from a levonorgestrel-only pill. However, the trial providing these data was too small to detect a clinically important difference.
