Divergent effects of d-norgestrel on the metabolism of rat very low density and low density apolipoprotein B.
Rats treated with the contraceptive steroid d-norgestrel have lower plasma very low density lipoprotein (VLDL)-triglycerides and higher low density lipoprotein (LDL)-cholesterol than controls.
