Abstract
Oral contraceptives inhibited the growth of calcium oxalate crystals in female urine, and the growth rate inhibition depended on the dose of ethinyl-oestradiol in the oral contraceptive agent. The results suggest that the crystallization kinetics of calcium oxalate in urine could be under the control of oestrogenic hormones by an unidentified mechanism.Entities:
