5.  Questions and Answers about Postmenopausal Hormone Therapy and Breast Health [With Annotations]
Document Date: 00000000

Search Terms in Context: ^ I've heard that HRT might make it harder to detect breast cancer. Is that true? &4. In some women, HRT increases something called "breast density." In general, breast density is higher in younger women whose breasts have relatively less fat and more lean tissue than older women. HRT acts on breast density by maintaining it at—or restoring to—premenopausal levels. Breast density affects how a woman's breasts appear in a mammogram, and very dense breasts can mate mammograms somewhat hard to read. However, there is no evidence that HRT use affects breast cancer detectioa In fact, researchers have shown that breast cancers in HRT users are found at similar—and in some studies earlier—stages than in nonusers. If HRT use makes breast cancer harder to detect, wc would expect the research to indicate the exact opposite. % What if I'm diagnosed with breast cancer while I'm taking HRT. WiU HRT make the disease harder to treat? ¦s4. Studies have found that breast cancer patients using HRT at the time the
