ABSTRACT
Combined injectable contraceptives were developed to avoid the adverse effects
caused by progestin injections in monotherapy, in addition to the suppression of the
pattern of menstrual bleeding (effect that does not occur with combined injectable
contraceptives). This presentation prevents ovulation in 99% of cases, as long as it is
applied correctly and regularly. In recent years, combined injectable contraceptives
have gained greater acceptance, due to the convenience of their administration and
lower metabolic risk. Combined injectable contraceptives are an excellent method
for women who do not have good adherence to oral contraceptive treatment and feel
more comfortable with the monthly injection.
