Cancer Causing

How? TheGySom 23:06, 28 March 2008 (EDT)

The pill is a carcinogen.--Aschlafly 23:06, 28 March 2008 (EDT)

Could you please elaborate a little, this is an important point which needs to be expanded. TheGySom 23:07, 28 March 2008 (EDT)

According to this the pill increases the risk of some cancers but decreases the risk of others, perhaps this could be clarified. TheGySom 23:09, 28 March 2008 (EDT)

And not all of "the pills" are diethylstilbestrol, right? Fuzzy|AFD 23:10, 28 March 2008 (EDT)

This study rejects any link of the pills to an increase in cancer, but supports a link to a decrease in cancer. TheGySom 23:11, 28 March 2008 (EDT)

a couple of points here - I dont want to edit the article without discussion .

"preventing any pregnancy not caused by God."  << isnt that a bit much for an encyclopedia ? if something has to be in the something like 98% effective in preventing mundane pregnancies might work .  also the cancer risks seem to be in some dispute according to what studies.
