The 09 Marchepisode of Carte Blanche delves into a growing concern surrounding a widely administered contraceptive injection, used by millions of South African women every three months.
A recent study has highlighted a potential link between this contraceptive and the development of brain tumours, causing significant anxiety and prompting women experiencing such tumours to seek answers.
The investigation delves into the implications of this potential side effect, examining the study’s findings and the experiences of affected individuals, raising questions about the safety and long-term effects of this common contraceptive method.
Its first episode aired on 21 August 1988 and over the last 34-plus years has earned credibility among South African viewers for its investigation into corruption, consumer issues, and current events.
