I’m reading the Star News today I come across this story on a study performed back in the 60’s that determined women on the pill live longer that those who never took the pill at all.
British researchers observed more than 46,000 women for nearly four decades from 1968. They compared the number of deaths in women on the pill to those who never took it.
In the study, women on the pill generally took it for almost four years. Experts concluded the pill cut women’s risk of dying from bowel cancer by 38 percent and from any other diseases by about 12 percent.
