The study revealed that women using hormonal IUDs, specifically those delivering levonorgestrel, have a 40% increased risk of breast cancer, although the overall risk remains low.
Dr. Daniel Breitkopf, emphasizing the actual risk context, compared it to lottery odds: even a doubled chance in a rare event doesn't change its low likelihood significantly.
The head of the research, Dr. Lina Morch, noted that hormonal IUDs are highly preferred among Danish women who have given birth, reflecting their popularity and acceptance.
