“…4). These findings are in accord with other series (Carmichael et al, 1970;Spellacy and Birk, 1972;Clezy et al, 1972) but the rises in blood pressure are not as great as those reported under less standardized conditions (Saruta et al, 1970;Crane et al, 1971). Two studies have suggested that oral contraceptives are more likely to induce changes in blood pressure in women with a history of pre-eclampsia (Spellacy and Birk, 1972;Clezy et al, 1972), though Smith (1972) did not confirm these findings.…”

“…Por outro lado, estes resultados contrastam com os estudos de outros autores, que mostraram aumento dos níveis de pressão arterial em mulheres normotensas com o uso de terapia hormonal 5,20,21 . Todos estes estudos diferem no tempo de acompanhamento das mulheres, dose e tipo de estrogênio utilizado, além da concomitân-cia ou não do uso de progestagênios.…”

“…Já foi demonstrado que determinados pacientes desenvolvem hipertensão com o uso de estrogênios em anticoncepção oral 3,4 . Além disso, algumas mulheres na pós-menopausa, reconhecidamente saudáveis, desenvolvem hipertensão arterial ao iniciar terapia hormonal, voltando ao padrão anterior de pressão arterial (PA) após a interrupção da medicação 5 . Existem evidências de que compostos estrogênicos, naturais ou sintéticos, têm um efeito estimulador no sistema renina-angiotensina IIaldosterona 4,6 .…”
