Ortho Evra Lawsuit Research - Ortho Evra Side Effects: Breast Cancer & Reproductive Cancer
Breast Cancer
Various studies give conflicting reports on the relationship between breast
cancer and hormonal contraceptive use.
Hormonal contraceptives, including the Ortho Evra patch, may slightly
increase your chance of developing breast cancer, particularly after using them
at a younger age. After you stop using hormonal contraceptives, your chances of
being diagnosed with breast cancer begin to decrease.
You should have regular breast examinations by a health care professional and
examine your own breasts monthly. Tell your health care professional if you have
a family history of breast cancer or if you have had breast nodules or an
abnormal mammogram.
Women who currently have or have had breast cancer should not use any
contraceptives that contain hormones because breast cancer is usually a
hormone-sensitive tumor.

Reproductive Cancer
Some studies have found an increase in cancer of the cervix (the narrow,
lower portion of the uterus) in women who use oral contraceptives for long
periods of time, although this finding may be related to factors other than the
use of oral contraceptives. At this time, there is insufficient evidence to rule
out the possibility that oral contraceptives may cause such cancers.
