    Ginekologia polska, 2019, Volume: 90, Issue:9

    Using anti-androgenic contraception is one of the methods of birth control. It also has a significant, non-contraceptiveimpact on women's body. These drugs can be used in various endocrinological disorders, because of their abilityto reduce the level of male hormones.The aim of our study is to establish a correlation between taking different types of anti-androgenic drugs and intensity ofhirsutism, acne, menstrual pain intensity and sexuality.. 570 women in childbearing age that had been using oral contraception for at least three monthstook part in our research. We examined women and asked them about quality of life, health, direct causes and effects ofthat treatment, intensity of acne and menstrual pain before and after. Our research group has been divided according tothe type of gestagen contained in the contraceptive pill: dienogest, cyproterone, chlormadynone and drospirenone. Additionally,the control group consisted of women taking oral contraceptives without antiandrogenic component.. The mean age of the studied group was 23 years ± 3.23. 225 of 570 women complained of hirsutism.The mean score for acne intensity before the use of contraception was 2.7 ± 1.34. The mean score for acne intensity after3 months of using contraception was 1.85 ± 1.02 (p < 0.001). 192 women reported excess hairiness in one or more areabefore treatment. Mean value based on Ferriman-Gallway scale before the treatment was 6.23 ± 6.21 and 5.39 ± 5.6 afterthe treatment (p < 0.001).. All groups of drugs effectively reduced pain and acne severity. Cyproterone and drospirenone turned outas the most effective drugs in treating hirsutism. Surprisingly, according to our research, dienogest does not have anyimpact on body hairiness.
