I read in an article today that 13% of women get breast cancer. And 80% are hormone- driven.

But it is an interesting idea to look only at women ten years or so post menopause.

However it takes time for breast cancer to develop so maybe the study should have extended the time frame to 60-70. How long do the effects of HRT last?

I was 63 at diagnosis and did bioidentical HRT for a few months in my mid-50's. I have always wondered....

it is unlikely that such short term use of HRT caused breast cancer. Agree completely that we need more studies on the long term use of HRT and use in older women. Such a complicated issue!
