Using any type of hormonal contraceptive could increase the risk of women getting breast cancer, new study suggests

Summary by Ground News
Progestogen-only contraceptive use is associated with a slight increase in breast cancer risk. The odds ratios for breast cancer were increased significantly if the last hormonal contraceptive prescription was for oral, injected, implanted or IUDs. The 15-year absolute excess risk associated with five years of oral combined or progestogen- only contraceptives in high-income countries was estimated at eight and 265.
