The effect of gestanone and ethynyl estradiol on benign breast disease.
The evidence related to the effects of Ocs on the breast benign diseases and their secondary relation to malignancy is studied. Our data are in concordance with other epidemiological studies, that showed no influence on breast mitosis and apoptosis and that there was a reduced incidence of benign breast disease; we also believe that it has a beneficial effect and that this method of contraception is the best.
