changes in libido, edema, breast enlargement, cardiovascular disease, stroke, clots, dementia
57
Contraindications of estrogens

59
Adverse effects of progestins
weight gain, clotting, breakthrough bleeding, cycle irregularity
60
Contraindications of progestins
pregnancy, breastfeeding, active clots
61
Mechanism of contraception
- inhibit release of gonadotropin releasing hormone - pituitary doesn't release FSH/LH - ovulation doesn't occur - uterus wall thins - uterine mucus becomes too thick for sperm
62
Adverse effects of contraception
nausea, abdominal pain, weight gain, cycle irregularities, clotting
63
Contraindications of contraception
pregnancy, clotting
64
Effects of oxytocin
similar to oxytocin released by posterior pituitary increases uterine smooth muscle contraction promote milk ejection from mammary glands
