Ovarian follicular development is initiated during the hormone-free interval of oral contraceptive use

We evaluated ovarian follicular development in women during compliant use of oral contraceptives (OC). Thirty-six healthy women received: [35 μg ethinyl estradiol (21)/180 μg norgestimate (7), 215 μg norgestimate (7), 250 μg norgestimate (7)]; [30 μg ethinyl estradiol (21)/150 μg desogestrel (21)];...

description We evaluated ovarian follicular development in women during compliant use of oral contraceptives (OC). Thirty-six healthy women received: [35 μg ethinyl estradiol (21)/180 μg norgestimate (7), 215 μg norgestimate (7), 250 μg norgestimate (7)]; [30 μg ethinyl estradiol (21)/150 μg desogestrel (21)]; or [20 μg ethinyl estradiol (21)/100 μg levonorgestrel (21)] for 3 consecutive 28-day cycles. Transvaginal ultrasonography was performed every third day to monitor follicular development. If a follicle reached ≥14 mm, ultrasonography was performed daily and blood drawn every other day to determine estradiol-17β concentrations. Seventeen of 36 women (47%) grew follicles ≥10 mm. Nine of the 17 women (53%) grew follicles ≥14 mm, in association with increased serum concentrations of estradiol-17β. Thirty-seven of 43 follicles ≥10 mm (86%) emerged during the hormone-free interval (HFI). No ovulations were observed. Our results supported the hypothesis that follicular development to an ostensibly ovulatory diameter occurs during compliant OC use, in association with loss of endocrine suppression during the HFI.
