ABSTRACT
PIP Over a 1-year period, 44 women using either Demulen, Deladroxate or the Lippes loop were studied at the University of Pennsylvania for urinary tract disorders. Monthly catheterized urine specimens were cultured and examined cytologically. Excretory urograms and serum creatinine examinations were performed 1 month prior to and 6 and 12 months after contraceptive initiation. No effect on the urinary tract was observed by X-ray studies. All serum creatinines remained normal. Urine sediments showed cytologic patterns consistent with phase of cycle. Incidence of asymptomatic bacteriuria was 6.8% initially and 11% during the course of study. Only 1 Demulen patient developed asymptomatic tract infection. Urographic abnormalities were found in a certain percentage of women of reproductive age irrespective of contraceptive use. Study results, are confirmed by urograms of family planning clinic patients, indicate that estrogen-progestogen contraceptives appear to have little significant effect on human tract anatomy or infection rate.^ieng
