pop a little pillBut now, new research suggests all forms of hormonal contraception including the pill, the implant or an intrauterine device , increase the risk of breastThe study, from the University of Oxford, builds on previous research suggesting a potential link between the combined pill and breast cancer.
Gillian Reeves, professor of statistical epidemiology and director of the Cancer Epidemiology Unit at the University of Oxford, said: ‘I don’t really see that there’s any indication here to say that women need to necessarily change what they’re doing.’ They looked at whether they’d been prescribed hormonal contraception and compared breast cancer risk for women who’d used it for five years, compared to those who didn’t.
Among women aged over 35, 1,953 per 100,000 women get breast cancer within 15 years, but among those who had five years of oral contraceptive use from age 35-39, this increased to 2,218 per 100,000 – an excess risk of 265 per 100,000 women.
