Combined Oral Contraceptives (COC) are classified as carcinogenic to humans by the World Health Organization.

The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), the cancer research agency of WHO, in its press release of the 29th of July 2005, informed of the publication of a monograph on the carcinogenicity of combined estrogen-progestogen oral contraceptives (COC) and combined estrogen-progestogen menopausal therapy (HRT), based on the conclusions of an international Working Group of 21 scientists from 8 countries.

Contraceptive hormone use is linked to cardiovascular disease.

Newer generation oral contraceptives (OC) indicate a persistent increased risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE or blood clots) for current users.

On the other hand, a young woman or a nonsmoker of any age has a greater risk of cardiovascular problems, such as heart attack or stroke, from pregnancy and childbirth than from hormonal Birth Control. Read the IARC report for yourself; the above answer gives only partial information on the risks/benefits of the birth control pill. Combined hormonal contraception lowers the risk of certain kinds of cancer while increasing the risk of other types. What is the motivation of a response that provides only part of the information collected by the World Health Organization?
