Not sure. there's nobody in my family with a genetic predisposition with breast cancer. But my mother had been on Premarin after an early hysterectomy at 29 and she was diagnosed with breast cancer at 57. The researchers at the university hospital where her surgeons are (University of Penn) had made the link from the premarin to her cancer.

They were though, the reply was stating women can use it to help regulate hormones for weight loss. Then this jaff came in and I replied to them.

I know every person is different but there are many ways to control PCOS without the pill. I take some amino supplements that have been working great combined with syncing my foods and workouts with my cycle. By the the pill doesn’t solve PCOS it only masks it. But I know it is personal.

Reply to comment by YesterdaySimilar2069 in Research found after six years spent tracking health outcomes among nearly 925,000 Danish seniors, investigators determined that when a man between the ages of 65 and 69 loses his wife he is 70% more likely to die in the year that follows, when compared with his non-widowed peers by Wagamaga

I believe it. My dad owned a store for many years and was social in that he was friendly to the customers and would say hi to them while out in town. He literally has no hobbies or friends and his life consisted of just going to work, running errands, watching tv and eating dinner, going to sleep, rinse and repeat. Now his store is closed and he still doesn’t have any interest in hobbies and he doesn’t have any close friends. It’s like he doesn’t know how to do those things and it’s pretty sad but he refuses to change

No, they’re not. The risk lies mainly in someone’s genetic makeup. If you have breast or prostate cancer in your immediate family, you are most at risk. But with no family history, birth control is extremely unlikely to cause problems

I considered the copper IUD but I’m having such an easy time with withdrawal, condoms and fertility awareness.
