Talk:Chlormadinone acetate

Possible side effects: Venous thrombosis and Meningioma
According to the German Wikipedia [^1], Chlormadinone acetate shares an increased risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE) [^2] or meningonoma (benign brain tumors). [^3] For VTE, the estimated incidence is 6-9/10_000 (CMA group) vs. 2/10_000 (baseline) [^2]

 * Note that this contradicts to this version of the article, which claims "CMA does not increase the risk of venous thromboembolism."
 * On the other hand, it is unclear whether the German findings concerning CMA+EE are applicable to CMA alone, or whether the risk assessment might be different concerning CMA use in males. 2003:D3:8714:FA00:A60B:9C2D:84D4:F6EE (talk) 13:58, 12 May 2024 (UTC)
