| Status | Contraindications | Alternative |
| Active liver disease (cirrhosis & liver cancer) Active breast cancer | <All hormonal methods> OCS, contraceptive patch, vaginal ring Progetin IUD | Copper IUD |
| Endometrial cancer Cervical cancer Gestational trophoblastic disease Distorted endometrial cavity Acute PID history <3 months Wilson disease Copper allergy Pregnancy | Copper IUD | OCS |
| Unexpected vaginal bleeding | Copper IUD Hormonal contraception | Further evaluation |
| Migraine with aura >15 cigarettes/day + age >35 Hypertension >160/100mmHg | Hormonal contraception | Progestin-only preparations |
| <Thrombotic diathesis> History of thromboembolic disease Antiphospholipid-antibody syndrome History of stroke Major surgery with prolonged immobilization | Hormonal contraception | |
| Heart disease DM with end-organ damage Use <3 weeks postpartum | Hormonal contraception |
- Adolescents
- Long-acting, reversible contraceptive devices (LARCs) such as IUDs and subdermal progetin implant are first-line contraception options d/t lowest failure rate and highest effectiveness
- OCs and hormonal patches/vaginal rings have a lower efficacy than LARCs.
- DMPA is not recommended.

- Advantage
- No effect on hypertension (cf. hormonal contraception)
- High efficacy (>99%)
- No effect on future fertility
- Can be removed at any time the patient desires pregnancy, with immediate return of fertility.
- Disadvantage
- Not recommended for patients with dysmenorrhea as its inflammatory reaction in the uterus may increase pain symptoms.

Systemic effect

Local effect

? Thin the uterine lining, which may theoretically impair embryo implantation.
Estrogens
- Effective for dysmenorrhea treatment and contraception as estrogen inhibit ovulation.

Metabolic Effects and Safety
- Hypertension
- Worsen preexisting hypertension d/t estrogen-induced hepatic angiotensinogen synthesis.
- Cause a mild elevation in BP and sometimes (~5% of chronic users) can lead to overt hypertension.
- The risk increases with the duration of OC use.
- Discontinulation can reduce BP and often corrects the condition.
- Absolute contraindication
- History of thromboembolic event
- History of estrogen-dependent tumor

Health Bene?ts of Oral Contraceptives
- Endometrial & ovarian cancer risk reduction
- Cf) slightly increased risk for cervical and breast cancer, which returns to normal within 10 years of OCP discontinuance.
- Menstrual regulation (eg, anovulation, dysmenorrhea, anemia)
- Hypeprandrogenism treatment (eg, hirsutism, acne)

- Complications
- Menstrual irregularities
- Especially during the first 6 months of use
- ~50% have amenorrhea after 1 year of use

- Menstrual irregularities
Subcutaneous DMPA
Once-a-Month Injectable
Subdermal Implants

- Progestin-releasing subdermal implant
- Long-acting, reversible contraceptive used for precoital contraception
- Sustained release of low-dose progestin ? cannot achieve the acute increase in progestin levels required to delay ovulation for EC.
- Like DMPA, similar side effects of irregular menses and breast tenderness.
Emergency Contraception
| Method | Mechanism | Timing after intercourse | Efficacy | Contraindications |
| Copper-containing IUD | 0-120hr | >99% | Acute pelvic infection Severe uterine cavity distortion Wilson disease Complicated organ transplant failure | |
| Ulipristal | PR blocker | 0-120hr | 98-99% | None |
| Levonorgestrel | P | 0-72hr | 59%-94% | None |
| Oral contraceptives (Multiple pills) | E+P | 0-72hr | 47-89% | None |
OCS: side effects (eg, severe nausea) d/t the high estrogen content.
Dosing: “Now and again in 12 hours”
Antiprogestins
To delay ovulation and impair implantation.
The Copper Intrauterine Device for Emergency Contraception
