Answers:
Interesting thing about the bc pill and cancer. It increases the risk of some cancers and lowers the risk of others. Research shows the pill increases the risk of breast and cervical cancer but it decreases the risk of ovarian and uterine cancer. Another factor that influences risk is whether the pill is a combination pill (estrogen and progesterone) There are many sites you can read up on this, here is one of thousands.
