A new study has shown that starting hormone therapy at around the time of menopause is associated with a greater risk of breast cancer compared to starting after a longer gap.
In this large, prospectively followed cohort of women, those who started hormone therapy five years or more after menopause had little or no increased risk, regardless of the type of hormone therapy used, how long they used it, and whether they were overweight or obese.
