[Behavior of the C-reactive protein in short and long-term application of various hormonal contraceptives]. 1978

G Klinger, and B Wuitz, and A Bonow, and A Stelzner

The behaviour of the C-reactive protein--an acute phase reactant=-in sera from pregnant women and women with different applications of hormonal contraceptives was analysed. A significant increase of the CRP as a consequence of the effect of the sexualsteroids in 627 single measurements could be shown.
