Review
Breast cancer: Menopause (update)
Excerpt
Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) may be used for the management of menopausal symptoms. The effects of HRT on the risk of breast cancer incidence, and mortality from breast cancer are unknown. This review aims to look at the incidence of invasive breast cancer, and mortality from breast cancer in users of HRT, compared to those who do not take HRT. This review also aims to look at whether the incidence of breast cancer or mortality from breast cancer is different depending on the duration of use, whether you are a current or past user, the type of HRT used, and a number of other characteristics such as ethnicity or socioeconomic status.
