Hormonal contraceptives nervousness

Nervous system By interfering with endocrine balance and metabolism, hormonal treatment can readily precipitate complications to which an individual is predisposed. For example, chorea was exacerbated when a woman with pre-existing chorea-acanthocytosis started to take an oral contraception [17 ]. [Pg.667]

As such it has a whole series of effects on the human nervous, endocrine and reproductive systems. In women, MPA is used safely as a contraceptive, for hormone replacement therapy, or to treat menstrual problems. But on men it counteracts the effects of androgen (the male hormone), leading to a reduction in their sex drive, their compulsive sexual fantasies, and their capacity for sexual arousal. [Pg.305]
