Birth Control & Breast CancerFrom: anonymous@obgyn.netMon, 7 Jan 2002 11:53:17 -0600 (CST)
Hi. I am still a virgin, but I am thinking about having sex with my boyfriend soon. I would like start the pill, but I'm not sure if I am able to do so because there is a history of breast cancer in my family. My mother and great aunt had it, so I am at high risk for it. I have heard that birth control pills increases your risk of breast cancer, so I am very reluctant to take it. Is there any type of pill out there that is better to take if you are at high risk for breast cancer? Is there a bug diffrence in each brand? Is it even healthy for me to be on the pill being at high risk? I want to take every precaution I can not get pregnant when I have sex, but I do not want to put my health in jeapardy. Please help! Thanks!
