Red Flag Origin

DefinitionLong-term combined oral contraceptive use (≥10 cumulative years). Mixed cancer risk profile per IARC Monograph 100A + Collaborative Group on Hormonal Factors in Breast Cancer + IARC reviews: - Modest BREAST cancer risk increase during current use + ~5y post- cessation (RR ~1.08-1.20; effect declines after cessation, baseline risk restored ~10y post-cessation). - Modest CERVICAL cancer risk increase with long-term use in HPV- positive women (RR ~1.5 at ≥5y use; effect attenuates post-cessation). HPV is the necessary cofactor. - SUBSTANTIAL PROTECTION against OVARIAN cancer (~50% reduction at ≥5y use, durable for ≥30y post-cessation). - SUBSTANTIAL PROTECTION against ENDOMETRIAL cancer (~50% reduction at ≥5y use, durable post-cessation). - Modest CRC protective association (less robust). Net cancer balance is favorable for most users. Prevention-persona RedFlag triggers a COUNSELING-BALAN...

Notes

Prevention-persona RedFlag for long-term combined OCP use ≥10y. Mixed cancer profile — modest risk increase (breast, cervical-with-HPV) AND substantial protection (ovarian, endometrial). Engine routes to PreventionPlan recommending COUNSELING-BALANCE indication, not unidirectional risk warning. Critical that render layer present full risk-benefit panel. STUB pending two-Clinical-Co-Lead signoff per CHARTER §6.1 dev-mode.
