Disproportionality analysis of progestogens and estrogens demonstrates increased meningioma risk
The study reveals significant variations in meningioma risk associated with different hormonal therapies. Certain progestogens and estrogens present notably higher risks, emphasizing the need for personalized risk assessments in hormonal therapy prescriptions. These findings advocate for further research to better understand meningioma risk linked to hormone-based contraceptives, supporting safer clinical decision-making.
