Reply to Any type of hormonal contraceptive may increase risk of breast cancer: according to an analysis of data by researchers at Oxford, progestogen-only hormonal contraceptives may increase breast cancer risk by 20-30%; the use of combined contraceptives may also slightly increase breast cancer risk. by aiaaidan
some useful bits from the linked article:
“The researchers estimated that the absolute excess risk of developing breast cancer over a 15-year period in women with five years use of oral contraceptives ranged from eight in 100,000 women for use from age 16 to 20, to 265 in 100,000 for use from age 35 to 39. …
‘These excess risks must, however, be viewed in the context of the well-established benefits of contraceptive use in women's reproductive years.’”

that’s 0.008% to 0.265% increased risk over those who did not use hormonal birth control
