Risk of sexual dysfunction with progestin-based contraceptives in women of child-bearing age

ConclusionOur study found an increase in the use of levonorgestrel (COC and IUD), drospirenone, and medroxyprogesterone in subjects with SD. The risk of contraceptives did not differ when compared with oral levonorgestrel. The small association size and lack of difference between drug formulations suggest a minimal impact of progestin-based contraceptives on sexual dysfunction.
