“…NMs claimed that clients most often forget to take their pills and switching OC may in part alter the body homeostasis. Though, switching OC methods is a common phenomenon, previous studies found that up to 80% of women who discontinue or switch, do so to less effective methods 24,25 . Recently, in other countries, women with some medical problems claimed to have received less or inappropriate counseling, placing them at increased risk for unintended pregnancy 19,20 .…”

“…Most people who were nonusers was said to have linked them to fear of adverse drug reactions. Side effects have often been cited as the major reason for discontinuation of OC 22,25 . Westhoff and colleagues 26 also reported that women from publicly funded clinics experienced difficulties in accessing or using methods correctly as a significant barrier to continuation.…”

“…Also, our respondents opted out significantly (p< 0.001) that OC could protect one from sexually transmitted infections. However, Rosenberg et al 25 suggested that establishing the truth to women about experience side effects, with vivid orientation of its scale such as ranging from mild or transient to severe, may fascinate accessibility and reliability. Also, with open discussion about what steps to follow if discontented with a method could also recline the risks of discontinuation.…”

“…Probleme mit der regelmäßigen Einnahme sind häufiger als allgemein angenommen. Mit einer schlechten Compliance ist vor allem bei Jugendlichen zu rechnen, als Prädiktoren gelten häufiger Partnerwechsel, geringes Gesundheitsbewusstsein und ambivalente Gefühle gegenüber einer möglichen Schwangerschaft [49].…”

ZusammenfassungBei der Behandlung mit Ovulationshemmern (OH) treten schwerwiegende Komplikationen wie venöse Thromboembolien, Herzinfarkte und Schlaganfälle nur sehr selten auf. Das Risiko betrifft überwiegend Frauen mit einer Prädisposition oder vorbestehenden Risikofaktoren. Bei gesunden normalgewichtigen Nichtraucherinnen mit unauffälliger Familienanamnese bestehen keine Bedenken gegen die Anwendung von niedrig dosierten Kombinationspräparaten. Für Frauen mit Grunderkrankungen, Risikofaktoren bzw. Kontraindikationen für die Einnahme von OH stehen alternative, sichere kontrazeptive Maßnahmen zur Verfügung. AbstractDuring treatment with ovulation inhibitors, severe adverse effects are very rare, e.g. venous thromboembolism, myocardial infarction, and stroke. The risk increases in women with a predisposition or risk factors. Healthy, nonsmoking females of normal weight and with nonremarkable family history can be treated with low-dose combined hormonal contraceptives, whereas for patients at risk or contraindications for ovulation inhibitors, other safe and reliable contraceptive methods are available.

“…In 1995, Rosenberg et al 23 published a review of the factors that affect compliance and continuity of use of COCs. The authors estimated a relative risk of 1.8 for stopping taking the pill when intermenstrual bleeding occurs.…”

Abstract:The contraceptive vaginal ring (CVR) is a combined hormonal contraceptive method, containing ethinyl estradiol and etonogestrel, that works by inhibiting ovulation. It differs from combined oral contraceptives (COCs) in the route of administration, which is vaginal, and the frequency of administration, which is monthly. The efficacy of the CVR is similar to that of COCs but compliance appears to be better in typical users. The CVR enables appropriate control of the menstrual cycle, with a similar side effect profile to COCs, while achieving good user acceptance. Different studies have established noncontraceptive beneficial effects of the CVR; for example, it can be useful for treating dysmenorrhea or excess menstrual bleeding. Recent epidemiological studies have confirmed that the risk of venous thromboembolism with the CVR is similar to that of COCs, including COCs that contain levonorgestrel.
