Abstract in brief

  • This study investigates how hormonal contraceptives taken before menopause may influence the risk of bone fractures later in life, given that they can affect bone mineral density (BMD).
  • The researchers reviewed various randomized controlled trials (RCTs) examining fracture rates, BMD, and bone turnover markers related to contraceptive use, but due to differences in interventions, they couldn't combine all data for a meta-analysis.
  • Using methods like GRADE to assess evidence quality, the study aims to clarify whether hormonal contraceptive use impacts bone health and fracture risk, informing clinical recommendations for women globally.]
