| Popis: | The Women’s Health Initiative (WHI) clinical trials 24-year follow-up study found increases in breast cancer and mortality with combined progestin/estrogen hormone therapy (HT) but reduced risks with estrogen-only HT [1]. The latter finding is dubious especially as HT use seems to be unknown during the long follow-up period [1]. |
