Just Say No To Tanning Beds Tanning bed use in early adulthood is associated with an increased risk for endometriosis, according to a study published online in Human Reproduction. Leslie V. Farland, ScD, from the University of Arizona in Tucson, and her colleagues examined the potential associations between ultraviolet radiation and endometriosis risk in a prospective cohort of 116,429 female US nurses from the Nurses' Health Study II. The researchers identišed 4,791 incident cases of laparoscopically conšrmed endometriosis. Positive associations with the risk for endometriosis were seen for tanning bed use during high school/college and at ages 25–35, and for the number of sunburns during adolescence and percentage of time using sunscreen in adulthood. "This study reinforces the advice to avoid using tanning beds and suggests that there may be an additional benešt of reducing the risk of endometriosis," Farland says. https://doi.org/10.1093/humrep/deaa280.
