TLDR
This study shows a strong protective association of oral contraceptives and parity with ovarian cancer risk, a higher risk with a late age at menopause, and no association with other reproductive factors.Abstract:
BACKGROUND: It is well established that parity and use of oral contraceptives reduce the risk of ovarian cancer, but the associations with other reproductive variables are less clear.METHODS: We ex ...read more

Incessant ovulation—a factor in ovarian neoplasia ?
TL;DR: The hypothesis that the extravagant and mostly purposeless ovulations in the human female may have a contributing role in neoplasia of the surface epithelium of the ovary requires additional consideration.

Characteristics relating to ovarian cancer risk: collaborative analysis of 12 US case-control studies. II. Invasive epithelial ovarian cancers in white women. Collaborative Ovarian Cancer Group.
TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluated the relation of invasive epithelial ovarian cancer to reproductive and menstrual characteristics, exogenous estrogen use, and prior pelvic surgeries, and found that women who had used fertility drugs and had long total duration of premenopausal sexual activity without birth control had increased risk of ovarian cancer.

Hormonal etiology of epithelial ovarian cancer, with a hypothesis concerning the role of androgens and progesterone.
TL;DR: The purpose of this review is to evaluate evidence for and against the incessant ovulation and gonadotropin hypotheses, as well as to consider the possibility that risk of ovarian cancer may be increased by factors associated with excess androgenic stimulation of ovarian epithelial cells and may be decreased by factors related to greater progesterone stimulation.
