A Hidden Side of Norplant

The "NORPLANT SYSTEM" is a birth control method involving the surgical insertion of six flexible match stick size rods of Silastic into the inner upper arm of women. The rods (implants) contain levonorgestrel, a progesterone type drug, which is released slowly to prevent pregnancy for up to five years.3 Levonorgestrel and its chemical relative norgestrel have been components of oral contraceptives ("birth control pills") for several years.4 Since Norplant does not contain estrogen,which is associated with blood clotting and cardiovascular disorders5,6, the manufacturer promotes Norplant " ... as a particularly good option for a woman who ... wants a form of hormonal contraception but does not wish to use estrogen-containing contraceptives."7
