Evidence for the involvement of changes in lipid metabolism and oral contraceptive use in the development of cardiovascular disease is briefly reviewed with particular reference to the main object of the article, to assess the effect of different oral contraceptive formulations on serum lipid levels. The preferred formulations should contain a low dose of ethynyloestradiol and should not increase serum levels of cholesterol and LDL-C or reduce those of HDL-C. Such formulations appear to be the triphasic one containing ethynyloestradiol and levonorgestrel and the ethynyloestradiol-desogestrel combination, which appears to be unique in that it may actually increase HDL-C. However other determinants in addition to effects on lipid metabolism will be important in deciding the choice of an oral contraceptive. Any changes which do occur in serum lipid concentrations with OC use appear within the first three months and do not appear to be progressive with continued use after this time.
