Abstract
Objectives: To summarize the effects of combined hormonal contraceptives (CHC) on bone health in adolescent girls.
Design: A systematic search was performed using the following databases: Medline, EMBASE, CINAHL and Cochrane Library clinical trials register, from inception to July 2024.
Eligibility: Intervention and cohort studies that assessed the use of CHC on bone health in adolescent girls aged 10-19years old were included.
Data synthesis: Four randomized control trials and eight observational studies (n =2689) were included.
Conclusion: Current evidence indicates that the use of CHC in post-menarchal adolescent girls reduce bone accrual compared to non-users. The negative impact on bone accrual is likely related to the estrogen dose in the CHC preparation, the regimen used and the duration of use.
