Several newspapers and online versions in China ran a story originating in the Shanghai Daily about a U.S. study on oral contraceptives that was led by Dr. Rahi Victory of the WSU School of Medicine. The study found that oral contraceptive users are 8 percent less likely to suffer heart attacks and high cholesterol and have a 20 percent lower risk of contracting ovarian cancer. While about 20 percent of Western women take the pill, only 2.2 percent of women in Shanghai use oral contraceptives, the newspaper reported.
