This must be big news, because it is being reported
everywhere, even in the Malaysian Times.
A massive study of Danish women has shown that use of birth control
pills containing estrogen and progesterone substantially reduces a woman’s
chance of contracting ovarian cancer. I
wrote about this several years ago (http://ljb-quiltcutie.blogspot.com/2016/09/the-pill.html),
but at that time it was only a “possibility”, but now you can call it a fact. The Danish cohort was divided into three
groups: those who had never taken the pill, those who had taken the original
pill, and those that took a new-fangled pill with the proportions of estrogen
and progesterone re-jiggered. The
results showed pretty conclusively that the older pill helped avoid ovarian
cancer’ and the new formula did it even better.
Take this to heart, folks
.
I wish I had never had that vasectomy. Think it through, guys.
More on the effect of oral birth control on the chance of contracting ovarian cancer. Men: think twice before getting a vasectomy!
