Resumo
Elagolix suppresses the hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian axis, and estrogen-containing contraceptives are expected to oppose its effect and reduce its efficacy. Elagolix is also not a reliable contraceptive when combined with hormonal methods, and its own effect on contraceptive efficacy is uncertain.
