摘要: "Megaloblastic" abnormalities of cervicovaginal cells similar to those seen in severe folate and vitamin B12deficiency were found 22 (19%) 115 women taking oral contraceptive agents (combined estrogen-progestogen or progestogens only). Similar changes not observed any 51 controls these medications. The cytologic could be related hematologic findings serum B12concentrations. reverted normal improved markedly all eight patients treated with pharmacologic doses folic acid for three weeks. It is hypothesized that induce a localized interference metabolism at the end organ level.
