Hormoral contraceptives has been introduced in the early 1960s and they have become a dominant form of female contraception in most developed countries. It is well documented that reproductive factors and hormone significantly modulate risk of certain cancers. With regard to cervical cancer, oral contraceptives use has been found to be associated with increased risk in human papilloma virus positive women. In literature review, the risk of endometrial cancer is reduced by about 50% in ever users, a benefit which is greater with increasing duration of use. Combined oral contraceptives have a signicant protective effect on the risk of ovarian cancer, and the protection increases with duration of use. The significant risk reduction has been confirmed for BRCA1 and 2 mutation carriers. Importantly, the use of oral contraceptives might become a new strategy for primary protection from gynecological cancers.
