Another pill myth From: Thomas (anonymous@obgyn.net) Fri, 31 Jul 1998 14:27:02 -0500 (CDT) Messages sorted by: [ date ][ thread ][ subject ][ author ] Next message: Thomas: "Re: Menopause diagnosis" Previous message: Victoria: "Menopause diagnosis" It's now 05:20 where I am and having delivered what I hope is the last baby of the night I am going to bed so please don't expect any replies for 4 - 5 hours. The forum states it is Friday but it is Saturday for me and I do not know what CDT is. For me the baseline time zone has always been at the origin of time and at 0 degrees longitude (i.e. Greenwich Mean Time or GMT). Clearly the Americans have decided to change this. However, I have just thought of another pill myth. It is this; MYTH: The pill increases the risk of cancer. TRUTH: There is huge argument amongst the medical profession as to whether or not there is a very small increase in the risk of breast cancer in women on the pill. Personally I believe there may be. However, even in the worst case scenario, the pill protects against all cancers as it protects against ovarian and womb cancer. -- Dr Thomas Ind MB BS MD MRCOG St George Hospital Kogarah Sydney NSW 2217 AUSTRALIA Next message: Thomas: "Re: Menopause diagnosis" Previous message: Victoria: "Menopause diagnosis"
