A member asked:
Is there a way to regulate your period without the pill? does the pill increase ur chances of breast cancer or any other cancer (it runs in my family)
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Mostly not: most GYN doctor use BCP to regulate your period so far there is no concrete evidence of breast cancer and BCP some study suggest that hormone replacement might increase the chance in some women strong family history of breast cancer would indicate to have a genetic testing to make sure you do not have the gene that caused breast cancer either way need to see a doctor BREAST SPECIALIST,.GYN ONCO
