Health Advisers Recommend Lifting Breast Implant Ban
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON -- In a surprising turnaround, federal health advisers Wednesday recommended allowing silicone-gel breast implants to return to the U.S. market after a 13-year ban on most uses of the devices -- but only under strict conditions that will limit how easily women can get them.
Mentor Corp. persuaded advisers to the Food and Drug Administration that its newer silicone implants are reasonably safe and more durable than older versions. The 7-2 vote came just one day after a rival manufacturer, Inamed Corp., failed to satisfy lingering concerns about how often the implants break apart and leak inside women's bodies.

FDA's advisers said Wednesday that Mentor had performed more convincing research that the implants only rarely break in the first few years after they're inserted -- about 1.4 percent over three years -- and showed some evidence that they may last as long as 10 years.

But they stressed that sales should resume only if Mentor meets some strict conditions: --Prospective patients must sign consent forms acknowledging implant risks, including that they ultimately may break and require removal or replacement. --Mentor may sell silicone implants only to board-certified plastic surgeons who complete special hands-on training to insert implants in a way that minimizes odds of breakage. --Mentor must open a registry to track how patients fare long-term, and continue more formal studies to nail down how often implants rupture within 10 years, something no one yet knows.

Seriously, men would never allow something that could pretty much screw up your body anywhere near their genitalia but they're happy to put out in the market something that has ruined hundred of womens lives - women who for man (but not all) are doing this disconfiguration just to please of all things - men. (yes, I realize some women do get breast implants because of cancer - that's a different story).

It's just that the FDA seems to be all about making men happy - keep their dicks erect and their women's breasts large. Yet if I'm lucky enough to have health benefits and if those health benefits just happen to cover birth control, I still might have to put up with some jerk who won't fill my prescription because god forbid I might have sex even though I'm an unmarried woman
