9883381 : Effects of contraceptives on hemoglobin and ferritin. Contraception. 1998 Nov;58(5):262-73.

The effects of combined oral contraceptives (OC), depot medroxyprogesterone acetate injections (DMPA), levonorgestrel subdermal implant (Norplant), copper-containing intrauterine devices (copper IUD), and Chinese stainless steel ring IUD on hemoglobin and ferritin were studied in 18-40-year-old, nonpregnant, and nonlactating women in seven countries (Bangladesh, Chile, China, the Dominican Republic, Pakistan, Thailand, and Tunisia).

Because underlying bleeding disorders are frequent in women with menorrhagia, physicians should consider performing a hemoglobin/hematocrit, platelet count, ferritin, PT (INR) and APTT in women with menorrhagia.
An inherited bleeding disorder is not a contraindication to hormonal therapy (oral contraceptives [II-1B], depot medroxyprogesterone acetate (DMPA) [II-3B], danazol [II-2B], GnRH analogs [II-3B]) or local treatments (levonorgestrel-releasing IUS [II-1B]) and non-hormonal therapy (antifibrinolytic drug tranexamic acid [II-1B]) as well as desmopressin (II-1B).

Depot medroxyprogesterone acetate (DMPA), a commonly used contraceptive, may worsen glucose tolerance in diabetics and those with lipodystrophy.
CASE: A young woman with generalized lipodystrophy, who previously required greater than 1,000 units of insulin daily, had a normal hemoglobin A1c on leptin and metformin only.
