| Abstract | ||
| This research designed to study the effects of the long –term use of the injectable hormonal contraceptive (Depot- medroxyprogesterone acetate DMPA) on the total cholesterol concentration and on lipid lipoprotein in the blood of Albino rats. Randomly 6 adult female rats were divided to two groups (3 animals for each group). The first group (control) were injected with (0.1ml) of normal saline every 14 days for 4 month, the second group (DMPA group) were injected with (0.5 mg/0.1ml) of DMPA every 14 days for 4 months.
