Background The effects of estrogen-containing contraceptives on disease activity in women
with systemic lupus erythematosus have not been determined. Methods We conducted a …

… between −0.31 (P = 0.42) and −1.02 (P = 0.07) in the group receiving menopause hormonal
therapy and between −0.38 (P = 0.47) and 0.47 (P = 0.25) in the group receiving placebo. …

… in both groups (P 0.002), but in the estrogen plus progestin group the reduction was more
pronounced than in the placebo group (1.5–2.0 versus 0.35–0.8 points on a scale of 0–6; P …
