Add to ORKGWe investigated sensitivity to activated protein C (APC) in 43 men, 42 women not using oral contraceptives (OC) and 38 women using OC containing 30.0-37.5 mu g ethinyl estradiol. A commercially available kit was used. Men were more sensitive to APC as compared with women not using OC (p So, in normal individuals the APC-sensitivity differs according to sex and estrogen intake. This should be taken into account when interpreting APC-ratios
