Abstract
In the United States alone, an estimated 1-2 million women have used silicone breast implants. Many of these women are of reproductive age. Given the current controversy over the safety of silicone breast implants, medical care providers should be able to advise women if use of these implants affects the use of any of the available contraceptive methods, whether pregnancy is in any way contraindicated and/or might be associated with special complications, whether there are potential risks to the fetus and neonate, and whether breast feeding might be compromised. A review of the literature on these topics yielded very little useful information.
