Breast Cancer and Deodorants
In recent years, the deodorants are accused of being responsible for breast cancer. To date, no evidence has shown this hypothesis, but many women are concerned. Today, a group of experts in oncology provides a reassuring answer.
The use of deodorant could affect the growth of breast cancer in women: no scientific studies have demonstrated this possibility. A group of experts from the French Cancer Society made a detailed and scientific analysis on this subject. Conclusion: No scientific evidence has been identified for this hypothesis.
Breast Cancer: deodorants Charged
Several studies have noted a high incidence of breast cancer at the area close to the application of anti-perspirant deodorant (the upper outer quadrant) and use more and more frequent these products.
Based on these findings, several research teams have sought to establish a possible link between antiperspirants and breast cancer. The assumption most played retained the possible role of parabens and aluminum salts. However, to date, no prospective epidemiological study has demonstrated the hypothesis that the use of deodorants had an impact on the growth of breast cancer in women.
No scientific evidence
A group of experts whose findings were published in the journal Cancer Bulletin, Official Organ of the French Cancer Society, gave a detailed scientific analysis to address the anxiety of women on this subject. They were well reviewed 59 studies from the literature and 19 items of different methodology. Their conclusion? No scientific evidence for the hypothesis could not be identified. Moreover, these experts explain that there remains no validated hypothesis may open up channels of interesting research. They argue that this issue does not constitute a public health problem and it seems pointless to continue research on this topic.
The French Agency for Sanitary Safety of Health Products (AFSSAPS) was published in 2006 from information in the same direction. Thus, no reason for concern about the use of any deodorant.
