[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]https://www.cancer.gov/about-cancer/causes-prevention/risk/hormones/oral-contraceptives-fact-sheet From cancer.gov: there is an increased risk of breast cancer. I never used oral BC and I don’t drink. Those are two things I can control…and not have to second guess myself down the road if I develop bc. Ditto for exercise and not being obese. And not smoking. [/quote] Right, and it is less of an increased risk for the average woman than drinking is. You are making the choices you made at least in part to decrease that risk. That's great! And it's great to talk about the risks that come into play with hormonal contraception. But it's disingenuous to say that risk is important without putting it into perspective with other things that increase risk, if it is really the risk that we are talking about. That's all.[/quote]
