The Science Behind Breast Implant Illnesses, Laura Miles, TEDx UCO
NOTE FROM TED: Please do not look to this talk as a substitute for medical advice. The health effects of breast implants remain an emerging field of study. TEDx events are independently organized by volunteers. The guidelines we give TEDx organizers are described in more detail here: Dr. Laura Miles discusses the vague entity of breast implant illness. This has been sparked by the recent recall of many of Allergans implants as they link them to a specific type of cancer. For many years, women have suffered a multitude of symptoms that they feel are related to their implants but have been brushed aside by the medical community. This historic recall has opened the door that these issues are not only legitimate but that more research and investigation needs to take place. In the meantime, women who suspect they have breast implant illness need a guideline on how to figure out if their symptoms are related to their implants. Data and case repo
