Abstract excerpt

In the general population, ovarian cancer risk is inversely associated with oral contraceptive use, tubal ligation, and childbearing. Among carriers of BRCA1 gene mutations, the data are conflicting. The authors identified women diagnosed with incident invasive epithelial ovarian cancer in the San Francisco Bay Area of California from March 1997 through July 2001. They compared the contraceptive and reproductive...
