"The pill actually sucks"
By Tom Quiner
If you’re on The Pill, read this.
A young blogger by the name of Hannah Marie points out ten serious downsides to taking the birth control pill. The first reason, says Ms. Marie, should be reason enough to dissuade you from continuing on The Pill:
Increased Risk of Caner
“There have been many articles written about how the pill is said to decrease chances of ovarian cancer. However, in a study done by the American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology in 2004, “Women who are on the pill have an increased chance of getting breast, cervical and liver cancer. In another study done by the Cancer Epidemiology, Biomakers and Prevention center in California, “Women who regularly use the pill are 4.2 times more likely to get breast cancer.”
If this doesn’t make an impact on you, think about this. The number of cases of breast cancer has risen over 80% since the 1970s. Do you know what happened right before that? You guessed it, the birth control pill was approved in 1960.”
I know this can get political. Liberals embrace The Pill with the same sacramental fervor that Catholics embrace Holy Eucharist. And yet there is nothing good about ingesting The Pill when it poisons your body, your sexuality, and your very worth as a person.
I encourage you to read the other nine risks of The Pill at Hannah Marie’s blog.
