Combined oral contraceptive: levonorgestrel and ethinyl estradiol administered orally
Study summary
The main purpose of this study is to evaluate how eloralintide (LY3841136) effects the way the body processes oral contraceptive in female participants with obesity or overweight. For each participant, the study will last about 8 months and will include 3 stays in the Clinical Research Unit (CRU), each lasting between 6 - 8 nights.
