Abstract

Oral contraceptive use is one of the major modifiable risk factors for breast cancer. To investigate the effect of oral contraceptive taking on breast cancer risk by BRCA 1 and BRCA 2 mutation status, we conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of case-controlled studies. Therefore, English language articles were retrieved by searching MEDLINE (PubMed), EMBASE and the Cochrane Library up to August 2021. Data were pooled from none case–control studies, comprising a total of 33,162 subjects, including 23,453 who had never used oral contraceptives. Overall meta-analysis indicated a statistically insignificant risk reduction: OR = 0.86, 95% CI: 0.70 to 1.06, p = 0.1594. However, increased breast cancer risk was associated with age at first use of OCs ≥20 years: OR = 1.21, 95% CI:1.07 to 1.36, p = 0.002. Multivariable meta-regression with covariates of age of first OC use (β = 0.21, 95% CI: −0.25 to 0.67, p = 0.3767), duration of OC use (β = −0.08, 95% CI; −0.51 to 0.34, p = 0.7093), and time since last OC use (β = 0.32, 95% CI: −0.22 to 0.85, p = 0.2461) did not have a significant effect on the breast cancer risk. This meta-analysis suggests a diverse effect of oral contraceptive use against breast cancer in BRCA carrier mutation. The association between OC use and breast and ovarian cancers needs more investigation.
