Long-Term Use Of Hormonal Contraceptives Leads To Glioma

Long-Term Use Of Hormonal Contraceptives Leads To Glioma.
The danger for developing a exceptional mode of brain cancer known as glioma appears to go up with long-term use of hormonal contraceptives such as the Pill, unheard of Danish research suggests. Women under 50 with a glioma "were 90 percent more plausible to have been using hormonal contraceptives for five years or more, compared with women from the extended people with no history of brain tumor," said analysis leader Dr David Gaist next page. However, the Danish workroom couldn't prove cause-and-effect, and Gaist stressed that the findings "need to be put in context" for women because "glioma is very rare".

How rare? Only five out of every 100000 Danish women between the ages of 15 and 49 promote the ready each year, according to Gaist, a professor of neurology at Odense University Hospital. He said that drawing includes women who palm contraceptives such as the descent control pill. So, "an overall risk-benefit computation favors continued use of hormonal contraceptives". The findings were published online in the British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology.

In the study, Gaist's group looked at ministry text on all Danish women between the ages of 15 and 49 who had developed a glioma between 2000 and 2009. In all, investigators identified 317 glioma cases, amidst whom nearly 60 percent had old a contraceptive at some point. They then compared them to more than 2100 glioma-free women of almost identical ages, about half of whom had Euphemistic pre-owned contraceptives. Use of the Pill or other hormonal contraceptive did appear to ram up the hazard for glioma, the researchers reported, and the risk seemed to boosted with the duration of use.
