Australian experts have posed different views regarding the new British research which says that the oral contraceptive pill is good for women, as it renders her less likely to die from a range of diseases, including heart disease and cancer.

The study published in the British Medical Journal posts that as a part of the study, the UK researchers observed 46,000 women for nearly 40 years, in what is now claimed as one of the world's largest contraceptive pill studies.

Some Australian researchers have been revealed to support the findings, however, others claims the study to be flawed as it fails to consider the pill's effect on mental health.

Professor Jayashri Kulkarni from the Monash Alfred Psychiatry Research Centre in Melbourne posts her concerns by quoting, "The study results could give the false impression that the pill somehow decreases cancer when in fact the finding may be due to the loss of follow up of women who actually died from clotting problems on the pill."

However, there was small increased likeliness of death among women fewer than 45 taking the Pill, in part as the widely known boosted chances of suffering a blood clot that effect vanished after around 10 years.
