The sequential method of contraception with megestrol acetate with ethinyl estradiol was offered to 61 women for 549 cycles in this study. No pregnancies occurred. Flow was less in 7 women and greater in 3; duration of flow was longer in 5 women and shorter in 3. There were 2 instances of breakthrough bleeding. Persistant postnatal amenorrhea occurred in 1 woman and menorrhagia in another. Random endometrial biopsies showed proliferative activity in the majority of cases. Side effects observed were: nausea, vomiting, giddiness, leucorrhea, headache, weakness and abdominal pain. Most of these symptoms occurred in the first 2 cycles. 29 women dropped out after the first year, and 8 of these women conceived. Ethinyl estradiol was used in .1mg dose, megestrol acetate in 1 mg.
