As the prevalence of T2D continues to rise, particularly among premenopausal females (18-45 years), it is imperative to conduct additional research in this area. Fluctuations in primary sex hormones in females have been shown to modulate risk for developing impaired glucose tolerance, however, research in this area as well as work investigating synthetic versions of these hormones for OCP and IUD users remains unclear. It is crucial to investigate how hormonal contraceptives can alter glucose tolerance in young, otherwise healthy females, and what downstream effects contraceptives could have later in life.","We will recruit 54 young healthy recreationally active females (n=18 per group) 18-45 years of age from the following groups: 1) individuals currently taking second generation OCPs containing levonorgestrel, 2) individuals with a levonorgestrel-releasing IUD, and 3) NAT individuals.",[44,49,53],{"label":45,"type":38,"description":46,"interventionNames":47},"NAT","Naturally-cycling females",[48],"Diagnostic Test: Oral Glucose Tolerance test (75g 2-hour)",{"label":50,"type":38,"description":51,"interventionNames":52},"OCP","Combined oral contraceptive users",[48],{"label":54,"type":38,"description":55,"interventionNames":56},"IUD","Hormonal intrauterine device users",[48],[58],{"type":59,"name":60,"description":61,"armGroupLabels":62,"otherNames":38},"DIAGNOSTIC_TEST","Oral Glucose Tolerance test (75g 2-hour)","Standard oral glucose tolerance test with blood draws every 15-30 minutes for a 2-hour span",[54,45,50],[64],{"name":65,"role":66,"phone":67,"phoneExt":68,"email":69},"Kirsten E Bell, Ph.D.","CONTACT","905-525-9140","24872","bellke3@mcmaster.ca",[71],{"facility":72,"status":73,"city":74,"state":75,"zip":76,"country":77,"countryCode":78,"cosmosGeoPoint":79,"geoPoint":84,"contacts":38},"McMaster University, Ivor Wynne Centre","RECRUITING","Hamilton","Ontario","L8S 4K1","Canada","CA",{"type":80,"coordinates":81},"Point",[82,83],-79.84963,43.25011,{"lat":83,"lon":82},{"type":86,"investigatorFullName":87,"investigatorTitle":88,"investigatorAffiliation":5,"oldNameTitle":38,"oldOrganization":38},"PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR","Kirsten Bell","Principal Investigator","100605980","postprandial-glucose-handing-in-contraceptive-and-iud-users-100605980",false,"NCT07169591","Postprandial Glucose Handing in Contraceptive and IUD Users","Exploring the Effect of Hormonal Contraceptives on Postprandial Glucose Handling in Young Healthy Females","HCPG","Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Within 18-45 years\n* BMI between 18.5 and 30.0 kg\u002Fm2\n* Weight stable for the past 6 months (± 2kg)\n* VO2peak values within a below average to above average rangea\n* Fasting blood glucose \\\u003C6.0 mMb\n* Resting blood pressure \\\u003C140\u002F90 mmHg\n\nNAT females:\n\n• Regular menstrual cycle for \\> 6 months (defined as a cycle length of 21-35 days)\n\nOCP users:\n\n* Use of combined OCPs as prescribed for \\> 3 months\n* Second generation levonorgestrel drugs only\n* Monophasic formulations only (Alesse, Alysena, Audrina, Aviane, Min-Ovral, Ovima, or Portia)\n\nIUD users:\n\n* Insertion of IUD no fewer than 3 months prior to beginning of study\n* Hormonal, levonorgestrel-releasing IUD (Kyleena or Mirena)\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Smoking\n* Diabetes, cancer, or other metabolic disorders\n* Cardiac or gastrointestinal problems\n* Infectious disease\n* Barium swallow or nuclear medicine scan in the previous 3 weeks\n* Pregnant or breastfeeding\n* Diagnosis of polycystic ovary syndrome\n* Endometriosis\n* Use of emergency contraception (e.g., Plan B) within the previous 3 months\n\nNAT females:\n\n• Use of any type of hormonal contraceptive in the previous 3 months\n\nOCP users:\n\n* Not using OCP as prescribed (e.g. missing doses or taking drug inconsistently)\n* Use of OCP for longer than 3 years.\n\nIUD users:\n\n* Insertion of Kyleena IUD longer than 2 years.\n* Insertion of Mirena IUD longer than 4 years.",true,"FEMALE","18 Years","45 Years",{"count":102,"type":103},54,"ESTIMATED","OBSERVATIONAL","Goals: The long-term use of hormonal birth control has been shown to effect glucose handling, or blood sugar regulation, and potentially lead to insulin resistance which increases a person's risk for metabolic diseases such as type 2 diabetes. The goal of this study is to investigate how the body handles glucose, in three groups of young, healthy females: NAT (naturally cycling, or not using hormonal birth control), OCP (taking a birth control pill), and IUD (using an intrauterine device). Objectives: We will investigate if the body's ability to handle glucose differs between these groups. We will also explore if these differences are linked to the levels of primary sex hormones in females, estrogen and progesterone, and if the synthetic versions produced by hormonal birth control have the same negative effect. We will use an oral glucose tolerance test to investigate these potential differences, having participants drink a 75 gram glucose beverage and taking blood samples every 15-30 minutes for a 2-hour timespan. These blood samples will be used to measure glucose and insulin levels in the blood to determine any changes that occur in the body in response to glucose.",[107],"Glucose Homeostasis",[109,19,110,111,112,113],"Glucose","Female Health","Hormonal Contraceptive","Intrauterine Device","Oral Contraceptive Pill","2025-09-16",{"date":116,"type":117},"2025-09-22","ACTUAL",{"date":119,"type":103},"2025-10-01",{"date":121,"type":103},"2026-10",{"name":5,"class":6},1]
