A new report from Hubei University of Medicine in China explores the association between oral contraceptives and cervical cancer. The study, which used data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, found that contraceptive use was positively associated with an increased risk of cervical cancer. The research also identified specific factors, such as age, BMI, smoking status, and number of sexual partners, that may contribute to the development of cervical cancer. These findings suggest a need for further investigation into the potential risks of oral contraceptives in relation to cervical cancer. [Extracted from the article]
