Dear editor: 1 few years after coming to the market, the first generation of oral contraceptive pills (OCPs) were linked to significant risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE). This increased risk was blamed on the presence of the estrogen-like compounds in these agents. Therefore, the efforts were initiated to decrease the VTE risk of OCPs by lowering the delivered estrogen content by adding prog...

In a cross sectional study of 137 women of childbearing age (16-40) the effects of normal pregnancy, hypertensive pregnancy, and oral contraceptives on red cell electrolyte content and sodium efflux rates were examined and the results compared with values in a control group of normotensive, non-pregnant women. Efflux rate constants were significantly increased in normotensive pregnancy and in w...

When breakthrough ovulation occurs, then secondary mechanisms operate to prevent clinically recognized pregnancy. These secondary mechanisms may occur either before or after fertilization. Postfertilization effects would be problematic for some patients, who may desire information a...
BACKGROUND Understanding the effect of oral contraceptives on risk of breast cancer in BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutation carriers is important because oral contraceptive use is a common, modifiable practice. METHODS We studied 497 BRCA1 and 307 BRCA2 mutation carriers, of whom 195 and 128, respectively, had been diagnosed with breast cancer. Case-control analyses were conducted using unconditional logi...
BACKGROUND Use of oral contraceptives could increase risk of cervical cancer; however the effect of human papillomavirus (HPV), the main cause of cervical cancer, is not usually taken into account. We aimed to assess how use of oral contraceptives affected risk of cervical cancer in women who tested positive for HPV DNA. METHODS We pooled data from eight case-control studies of patients with ...

The authors identified over 10 500 cases of VTE in women aged 15-49 years and ar...
