Summary

This study tests a newer birth control pill (estetrol-drospirenone) against an older one (ethinylestradiol-levonorgestrel) to see which has fewer effects on blood vessel health and metabolism. About 98 women aged 18-49 who want contraception will take one of the pills for a year. Researchers will measure artery function, blood pressure, and blood markers to find a safer option.
