While contraception has been an acquired freedom for more than 10 years, a number of women present clinical manifestations resulting in the restriction or the suppression of this freedom. The symptoms are extremely diversified, from forgetting the pill to severe depression, from repeated infections to personality disorders. If many symptoms may be explained from an organic standpoint, others only derive from an unconscious resistance to contraception. The authors attempt to determine the origins of such resistance, their possible variations and advocate a management protocol for patients presenting this type of disorder.
