Birth Control Pills Increase Risk of Breast Cancer
Older generation birth-control pills may have significantly increased Breast Cancer risk among women with a family history of the disease.
In a study of 426 families, investigators found that oral contraceptive use tripled breast cancer risk among women with sisters or mothers who had the disease.
The risk was confined to women who used "the pill" prior to 1975.

The research from Boston University School of Medicine in Massachusetts indicates that oral contraceptives containing desogestrel or gestodene increased the risk of blood clots by a factor of 2.3 compared to older birth control pills containing levonorgestrel.
