Hormonal contraception: Systemic methods of contraception based on a progestagen combined with an oestrogen, or a progestagen alone. The methods of delivery include pills (oral contraceptives), injectables and implants. All are reversible.

Early changes are due, in part, to the metabolic demands brought on by the fetus, placenta and uterus and, in part, to the increasing levels of pregnancy hormones, particularly those of progesterone and oestrogen.
Improved nutritional conditions increase insulin-lie growth factor 1, which would stimulate both the maturation of ovarian follicles and their oestrogen production, and also the hypothalamic secretion of gonadatrophin releasing hormone, ...
