However, in discussion with Dr. Davis (Co-I) and Dr. Laura Cooney M.D., physician experts in medical and reproductive endocrinology and infertility, there are two broad exceptions to this birth control criteria: Copper intrauterine devices (IUDs) will be allowed as they do not change systemic sex hormone levels). Women currently taking hormonal birth control (i.e. contraceptive pills, patch, ring) for contraception only (not for a medical condition such as those listed in exclusion criteria above) may consider temporarily stopping to become eligible for enrollment. Hormonal birth control must be stopped at least one month prior to Study Visit 1 to provide time for menstruation to resume. Then stoppage continues through the last planned study visit. Screening information will be reviewed by endocrinology physicians to determine eligibility and timing on this issue (details below).
