- Abstract
. The effects of an oral combined contraceptive (OC) (norethisterone + mestranol) on plasma levels of glucose, free fatty acids (FFA), glycerol, D-β-hydroxy- butyrate and triglycerides in 39 healthy women were followed. Plasma samples were collected before and during the end of the first and second cycles of OC administration. OC caused a significant increase in triglycerides while the levels of glucose, FFA, glycerol and β-B- hydroxybutyrate were unaffected.
