Pregnancy and progeny after long-term contraceptive treatment with low-dose progestogens.
Sixteen women who had used a low-dose progestogen-only oral contraceptive preparation ('Exluton'), containing 0.5 mg. lynestrenol per tablet, for periods of at least a year were studied. All had normal pregnancies after discontinuing the preparation and gave birth to healthy infants: 11 girls and 5 boys. No complications were found at subsequent routine examinations of the infants.
