The effects of Depoprovera and Deladroxone were studied in humans, on certain milk components as well as on the growth of the nursed infants. Both drugs caused reduction in milk yield. Both drugs caused an increase in the concentration of milk total proteins, however. Depoprovera caused an increase while Deladroxone caused a decrease in the total amount of milk proteins per feed. Depoprovera showed no effect while Deladroxone caused an increase in the concentration of milk lipids; however, both drugs caused reduction in the total amount of milk lipids per feed. Both drugs showed no effect on the concentration of milk lactose, but caused reduction in the total amount of milk lactose per feed. The percentage increase in weight of nursed infants was decreased by Depoprovera, but not affected by Deladroxone.

The pharmacodynamics of the combination of dihydroxyprogesterone acetophenide (DHPA) and estradiol enanthate (E2-EN) following its intramuscular administration at two doses were studied in 16 healthy women of reproductive age. Subjects were randomly allocated in two groups: group I (n = 9) received the combination DHPA 150 mg + E2-EN 10 mg on three consecutive monthly injections, while group II (n = 7) received half-dose of the same formulation. Ovarian function and endometrial bleeding patterns were investigated in all participants for one pre-treatment cycle, three treatment intervals and two post-treatment cycles. The results disclosed that ovulation was inhibited for at least 30 days following DHPA/E2-EN administration in all participants from both groups. The circulating estradiol levels 30 days after last injection were slightly elevated as compared with those observed in normal early follicular phase. Return to ovulatory cycles was documented within 90 days after treatment. The length of the bleeding-free intervals during treatment was shortened in both groups, particularly in group II. No significant changes in HDL-cholesterol levels were observed throughout the study. It is envisaged however, that large modification of the formulation and additional long-term safety studies will be required prior to its recommendation.
To assess the effect of hormonal monthly injectable contraceptives upon the serum values of immunoreactive prolactin (Prl), three groups of women of reproductive age exposed to different estrogen-progestogen injectable formulation for a minimum of one year were studied. The first group (n = 10) received dihydroxyprogesterone acetophenide 150 mg and estradiol enanthate 10 mg (DHPA/E2-EN), Group 2 (n = 21) received medroxyprogesterone acetate 25 mg and estradiol cypionate 5 mg (MPA/E2-C) and Group 3 (n = 19) was exposed to norethisterone enanthate 50 mg and estradiol valerate 5 mg (NET-EN/E2-V). A group of IUD users (n = 16) served as the control group. Serum Prl and 17 beta-estradiol (E2) concentration were determined in blood samples (0 and 15 min.) on days 0 (day of last injection), 10, 20 and 30 after last contraceptive injection. The results demonstrated a slight though not significant increase (p greater than 0.05) in serum Prl in the three experimental groups as compared with the IUD control group. This increase in Prl levels observed on day 10 post-last injection never exceeded the upper limits of the normal range (20 ng/ml). Overall, the data demonstrated that the chronic administration of these estrogen/progestogen once-a-month injectable contraceptives does not affect the Prl baseline secretion in women.
