A 39-year study of women taking the contraceptive pill found that they had a lower risk of dying from any cause compared with women who had never taken it, researchers said.

"Oral contraception was not associated with an increased long term risk of death in the large UK cohort, indeed a net benefit was apparent," said the study published in the B...

The UN currently p...
