SOME EFFECTS OF ORAL CONTRACEPTIVES ON SERUM FATTY ACIDS DISTRIBUTION
Serum total fatty acids were estimated in controls and women using the oral contraceptives Eugynon (containing 0.5 mg.of norgestron and 0.05 mg ethinyl oestradiol) and Lyndiol (containing 2.5 mg. of linostrol and 0.05 mg of ethiny oestradiol) for periods ranging from 8 to 110 weeks. The serum total...
