Receiving birth control pills containing progesterone may increase the frequency of asthma attacks in women. This conclusion was reached by British scientists from the London Imperial College. Published in İş Magazine ERJ Open Research.
Researchers analyzed the data of more than 260,000 women who were diagnosed with asthma between 18 and 50 years. In patients receiving only progesterone contraceptives, the severe exacerbations of the disease occurred more frequently.
This applies especially for women under 35 years of age, patients with eosinophilic asthma form, and patients with less anti -achmatic medication. Women using combined drugs (estrogen + progesterone) did not have a similar connection.
According to the president of Chloe Bloom’s work, women die twice as much more often than men, and hormonal factors may play an important role. The data obtained will help doctors and patients to choose the safest birth control method.
Scientists show that the results are not the basis for stopping prescribed medication, but an individual approach is needed when choosing contraceptives in asthma women.
