Webster’s defines poison as: “Any agent which, when introduced into the animal organism, is capable of producing a morbid, noxious, or deadly effect upon it.” The pill is poisoning many women. Hormonal contraception poisons women in one of two ways. They:
- Cause Growth in breast tissue which in turn causes cellular mutations and ultimately cancer.
- Act as a Direct Carcinogen directly causing cancerous cells to form.
Now that this has happened, yanking (or at least more carefully prescribing these carcinogenic drugs) might seem impossible. Birth control pills carry an economic incentive that has blurred society’s desire to do right. The billion dollar pharmaceutical business is booming.
Many breast cancer victims almost intuitively know the pill may have caused their cancer. A sampling of this intuition among breast cancer victims can be found at: http://community.breastcancer.org/forum/78/topic/740486. Here are some of the threads you will find there:
Janet: ...I took birth control pills from age 19 – about 40. I have no bc [breast cancer]
history in my family. Something I noticed that I found interesting as I
read through your postings is that statistically we would be considered
“young” for breast cancer, as the average age to get a breast cancer
diagnosis is 61. Combine that with the fact that we are probably the
first generation to use birth control pills for any length of time, I
definitely feel there may be a connection. Even if it’s just a
suspicion at this time, I think I’ll tell my 19 year old daughter to
look into another means of controlling her mild acne.
Curlylocks: The first
question my surgeon asked me is if I had taken the birth control pill.
So yes I believe there is a link. I never had a concern about getting
bc [breast cancer], actually never thought of reading the package insert
when I was 19!
One of those things that makes you go hmmmmm…..
Hmmmmmm indeed! Nurses at the conference have observed a peculiar pattern in young breast cancer patients. Many of us may have seen this pattern in someone we know. The pattern goes something like this:
A young girl goes on the pill.
She marries and goes off the pill.
She has a child.
She goes back on the pill
She has another child.
She goes back on the pill.
