Decrease in Breast Cancer Rates Related to Reduction in Use of Hormone
Replacement Therapy
The sharp decline in the rate of new breast cancer cases in 2003 may
be related to a national decline in the use of hormone replacement
therapy (HRT), according to a new re****t in the April 19, 2007, issue
of the New England Journal of Medicine. The re****t used data from the
Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) program of the
National Cancer Institute (NCI), part of the National Institutes of
Health.
