Abstract
Oral contraceptive pills have several side effects especially on the gastrointestinal
tract and liver. Absorption of low dose (LD) pills by the vaginal route avoids
the first pass of the steroids through these tracts and probably has fewer side
effects. This study was a cohort study for evaluation of side effects and acceptability
of LD pills administered by the vaginal route. In a clinical trial study,
undesirable side effects such as nausea, dysmenorrhea, breast tenderness gastrointestinal
disorders, vertigo, headache, and breakthrough bleeding (BTB) were
studied. The side effects, efficacy and acceptability were evaluated in 220 women
using contraceptive pills containing 150mg levonorgestrel and 30mg ethinyl estradiol
via the vaginal route in 660 cycles. The side effects among the patients who
used the contraceptive pills vaginally were nausea in four subjects (1.8%), vertigo
and headache in two subjects (0.9%), breast tenderness in four subjects (1.8%),
dysmenorrhea in four subjects (1.8%), gastrointestinal disorders in one subject
(0.5%), and BTB (breakthrough bleeding) in twelve subjects (5.5%). Most subjects
in this study expressed a high level of acceptability with the vaginal route.
There was only one unwanted pregnancy that occurred when the subject used the
contraceptive pill incorrectly. Using contraceptive pills administered by the vaginal
route appears to be a safe method with few side effects and high acceptability.

Abstract
Background: With the advancements in fertility preservation technology, such as egg freezing, women could now preserve their gametes for potential future parenthood. It is important to explore how the needs of women are addressed and supported throughout the egg-freezing process. By investigating the experiences of research participants, we aimed to identify how reproductive rights are interpreted for egg-freezing applicants in Iranian infertility centers.
Methods: In this qualitative study, 16 service providers and 5 egg-freezing applicants in infertility treatment centers in Iran were interviewed. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews. All interviews were recorded and after transcription, conventional qualitative content analysis was used for data analysis.
Results: Issues related to specific requirements for evaluating the reproductive rights of egg-freezing applicants included the following: the right to preserve fertility, the right to access psychological support services, the right to decide the fate of the oocyte, the right to trust and privacy, and the right to one's own body.
Conclusion: Women had the right to decide the fate of their eggs and choose to preserve them for future uses. Service providers played a role by offering comprehensive information about the egg-freezing process, considering applicants' requests, and offering psychological support to those interested. It seemed, trusting and using this emerging technology, users can protect their reproductive rights by preventing infertility in the future.
