EMA press release
Dear colleagues and friends,
I invite you to read the reassuring press release of the European Medicines Agency ( EMA) (October 11, 2013) . This opinion of the EMA is important to know and make known to the doctors, midwives and pharmacists , as well as for users of combined hormonal contraceptives.
EMA’s statements confirm that taking into account the reevaluation of the risk of VTE and ATE of estroprogestative contraceptives , the benefits of these contraceptives continue to exceed their risks.
This is at the request of France that the PRAC (EMA 's Phamaco -vigilance Risk Assessement Committee) took up this reevaluation . Confidently expect notice of the CHMP (Committee for Medical Products ) meeting in November 2013 and the final opinion of the EMA on the thromboembolic risk contraceptives EP.
Look especially forward the reaction of the French health authorities.
Dr. David SERFATY
President of FSG

European Medicines Agency starts safety review of Diane 35 and its generics
The European Medicines Agency’s Pharmacovigilance Risk Assessment Committee (PRAC) formally started a safety review of Diane 35 (cyproterone acetate 2 mg, ethinylestradiol 35μg), associated names and its generics at its 4-7 February 2013 meeting.
European Medicines Agency starts safety review of Combined hormonal contraceptives containing chlormadinone, desogestrel, dienogest, drospirenone, etonogestrel, gestodene, nomegestrol, norelgestromin or norgestimate
Following the meeting of the Pharmacovigilance Risk Assessment Committee (PRAC), the European Medicines Agency has started two safety reviews:
Combined hormonal contraceptives containing chlormadinone, desogestrel, dienogest, drospirenone, etonogestrel, gestodene, nomegestrol, norelgestromin or norgestimate
The review of these contraceptives was requested by the French medicines agency ANSM following concerns in France about the risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE or blood clots in veins). The EMA will now review all available data on the risk of VTE with these contraceptives and issue an opinion on whether any changes are needed to their prescribing advice across the EU.

No.1 Newsletter of the ESG
Dear colleagues,
Dear Friends,
Here is the first edition of the European Society of Gynecology’s newsletter.
Thanks to the involvement of the office’s members and to the ESG board, I would like this newsletter to become not only a link between the ESG’s managers but foremost, a link between all of the ESG’s members.
This newsletter will keep you updated of the several conferences in which the ESG has taken part of. Also, the doctors Anne Grimard, Margarida Moreira and Ulysse Gaspard made a call to the member’s contribution.
The next editions will most likely talk about the excellent assessment of the ESG’s 9th congress in Copenhagen organized by Sven Olaf Skouby and by the ICS.
In the last place, this newsletter could give some professional and scientific information “flash” related to the gynecologic field.
I wish a long life and success to the ESG’s newsletter and thank those who’ll pass it through.
Dr David Serfaty
European Society Of Gynecology President

This medical crisis subsequently developed into an international public and political crisis. Over 500,000 PIP implants were inserted worldwide:> 45,000 in the UK, >30,000 in France.
