There is a great controversy about hormonal replacement therapy in women among the members of the scientific community. Cancer survivors have sometimes had their ovary function totally or partially destroyed, thus affecting their development and quality of life. In this study, we were looking for adverse effects caused, eventually, by estroprogestative therapy in a cohort of supplemented survivors. The occurrence of breast cancer was our main concern. Ours is a retrospective study based on the clinical records of 174 survivors of several cancer diseases. Their median ages within each of the following time frames were: diagnosis – 22 years old; start of endocrine treatment – 26 years old, and duration of treatment – 12 years old. Evaluation was composed of breast cancer assessment, osteopenia and osteoporosis incidence, and vascular events. We have found a very low incidence of breast cancer as well as of vascular events. After treatment, a high percentage of our sample displayed bone mass improvement. |
