Reply to comment by toucanonporpoise in Any type of hormonal contraceptive may increase risk of breast cancer: according to an analysis of data by researchers at Oxford, progestogen-only hormonal contraceptives may increase breast cancer risk by 20-30%; the use of combined contraceptives may also slightly increase breast cancer risk. by aiaaidan

A lot of those issues can be helped by lifestyle, diet and exercise. People want a pill to fix things, but sometimes it creates more issues, like cancer.

Ew. That’s a very simplistic and wrong way to look at this issue. You don’t cure endometriosis or PCOS with a good diet and exercise. There is no cure, but hormonal contraception can make life more bearable and manageable. I honestly don’t know how you can come into this thread and make this claim when you clearly don’t know what you’re talking about

That's how, the confidence of ignorance.

Maybe it’s ignorance to think there is only one way of doing things.

There’s a clearly defined correct answer to something, but different ways of using that information. But if you won’t even agree that the right answer is even correct, based on co spinach theories and lies, then you’re going to get shat on for your stupidity and lack of even starting off the conversation on a productive note. People can’t even agree on what the problem is.

Because they’re ignorant. They have never been sick before, so they just bunnyhop through life crediting their diet

I have lots of friends who manage their endo and PCOS with natural supplements and diet. There isn’t just one way of doing everything.

Neither of these conditions mean you cannot lose weight.

Can they make it harder? Sure. That does not mean it's impossible or even necessarily hard.

That’s true, but they were not talking about weight loss.

They were though, the reply was stating women can use it to help regulate hormones for weight loss. Then this jaff came in and I replied to them.

No, they didn’t. you’re the first person to bring up weight loss. Yes, weight loss can help with the symptoms, but it won’t just get rid of the problem. That’s why we … prescribe meds

I said hormones for PCOS and endometriosis. Losing weight doesn’t have anything to do with my comments on managing these things. Weight doesn’t cause them either

When was weight at all ever a part of this conversation?
