A further experimental study on changes produced in rabbits by low dosage contraceptives is presented. The administration has been continued for six months. Serum biochemical and hepatic ultrastructural findings are in agreements with literature data. On the contrary the early changes of cardiac microcirculation and chiefly renal glomerular tuft seem to be rather unusual.
