Franțuzoaicele, avertizate de stat despre anticoncepționalele pe care le iau. Pilulele se vând și în România

French health authorities have warned nearly 2 million women about a slight increase in brain tumor risk associated with desogestrel contraceptives. The hormone, found in pills like Cerazette, may raise the risk of meningioma, particularly in women over 45 or those with a history of progestin use. While the risk is low, it becomes significant after five years of use. Women are advised to consult their doctors rather than stop taking the pill abruptly, as this could lead to unintended pregnancies. Symptoms like persistent headaches should prompt medical evaluation, including possible MRI scans.
