Birth control study with a new hormone pill (LUNA)
Part of Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study tests a new birth control pill to see how well it prevents pregnancy and if it's safe. It combines a lower dose of estrogen with a different type of progestogen that blocks male hormones.
