We have raised concerns about the study methodology in a Danish study about hormonal IUDs and the risk of breast cancer in a Letter to the Editor in @jama.com jamanetwork.com/journals/jam...
Breast Cancer and Levonorgestrel-Releasing Intrauterine Systems
To the Editor We are concerned that some of the methodological approaches in a recent study1 linking use of LNG-IUSs to increased risk of breast cancer may lead to spurious associations and limit the ...
