NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - Survival is no better or no worse among breast cancer patients who have used the birth control pill, according to a report in the journal Obstetrics and Gynecology.The findings are “broadly reassuring,” Dr. Herbert R. Peterson of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, one of the study’s authors, told Reuters Health. “There just doesn’t appear to be any concern about women using the pill at younger ages from the standpoint of breast cancer.”
