In addition, the researchers argue that when a woman swallows pills with high levels of progestin, the risk of contracting the disease is reduced by 50%. The conclusion of this study is that oral contraceptives protect against ovarian cancer, and that the protective effect of progestin is a scientific result that could lead to the development of new drugs against ovarian cancer.
