www.empowereddoctor.com A recent study from Ghent University in Belgium suggests that oral contraceptives ? notably high estrogen ones sold decades ago ? might increase the chances of having artery buildups that can raise the risk of heart disease. Researchers claim that women who have used oral contraceptives are more likely to have a buildup of plaque in their arteries compared to those women who have not. The main concern for these women is that higher plaque levels increases the risk of a clot developing that can result in a stroke, heart attack, or sudden cardiac death. Though further testing beyond this single study is necessary, it?s important due to the sheer scope ? 100 million women use birth control pills worldwide.
